Tracking number belongs to another address
The seller sent my item that I bought to another address and it got lost, and I checked the tracking number at the post office and it belongs to an address I don't know... What can I do?

If the buyer actually receives something, the buyer can file a "not as described" return within thirty days for a full refund. In fact, any buyer on eBay can file a "not as described" return, provided the buyer is willing and able to return exactly what was received.
If tracking shows delivery but nothing arrives and the buyer can obtain some hard copy documentation (email is not good enough) that says that the package was not delivered to the buyer's address or documentation that shows the weight or size of the package cannot possibly correspond to the ordered item, or the shipping date precedes the order, then the buyer may be able to contact eBay via social media direct message, provide that documentation to eBay and get help with "false tracking".

With "false tracking" if you go through a standard automated "item not received" case, on the other hand, you will lose the case because the seller can provide tracking that appears to show delivery. If you then appeal, you may have some additional options at that point. It appears that eBay has added a new appeal option regarding "delivery to another address", but I do not know how effective that is compared to contacting eBay via social media with documentation and explicitly mentioning "false tracking", which seems to work provided you can obtain the necessary documentation.
If you are unable to get help through eBay, you may have recourse through your payment method, though you should probably exhaust all your eBay options first since once you go through your payment method, eBay will no longer help with that transaction.
In general, you can avoid a lot of headaches by choosing to purchase only from established sellers that have recent and past positive feedback as a seller for selling items in the same category that you intend to buy. If someone is selling a dozen apple watches, but has no feedback, or only has feedback as a buyer, or only has feedback for selling dress patterns or fishing lures (actual examples I have seen), perhaps wait until they have a track record of positive feedback for selling electronics before you buy from them.

OP11 months agoLe agradezco tanto por su consejo.
Es la primera vez que me estafan en eBay y me siento traicionado horriblemente, después de que e gastado miles de dólares en productos en esta tienda de eBay.
Y lo peor es que ya hice el reclamo con mi institución financiera de Paypal, y creo está a favor del antes mencionado.
Y en caso de que no me resuelvan a mi favor tendré que cortar con xoom, Paypal y eBay. Que injusticia la verdad, creo que no podré dormir hoy ni mañana, o en una semana completa.
Dios le bendiga ♾ï¸
Att un comprador en estado de "veremos" qué pasa!

Mentor11 months agoIf PayPal decides against you, you may still have recourse through your payment method if you paid via credit card. Be sure to indicate that the problem is actually "false tracking" and not simply a lost package.
Good luck!
