    In the listing where you made your purchase, you saw an estimated delivery date.  That IS the EDD and cannot be changed.  If the last estimated delivery date was the 6th of December and there is no tracking showing delivery, why not open an item not received case?

    I would open item not received but it ain't yet there   Ebay keeps moving delivery date since he ain't shipped

    Perhaps I wasn't clear:  There was an estimated delivery date in the listing when you made your purchase.  That cannot be changed by anyone.  Go back in your PURCHASE HISTORY and find that date.  If it's more than one day ago (and you mention the 6th), you can certainly open an item not received case.  You have 30 days past that EDD to open a case with eBay.

    That's not correct. Initially when you first pay you are given an estimated delivery date from ebay. But when the carriers estimated delivery date is later, ebay changes it on your purchase history to match theirs,

     

    Look at my screenshot below, the original EDD was on 12/11 , but USPS shows 12/12.

    Meanwhile it still shows returns accepted through 1/10 based on ebay's original 12/11 EDD

    It sounds like you're dealing with a frustrating situation where the seller hasn't shipped the item yet, and eBay's system isn't showing the expected option to report it. Here’s what’s likely happening and what you can do:

    1. Check the Estimated Delivery Date

    • eBay often adjusts estimated delivery dates based on the seller’s handling time and the shipping method. If the system hasn’t officially marked the item as overdue, the "I Haven't Received It Yet" option won't appear.

    2. Possible Reasons the Seller Hasn't Shipped

    • The seller may have marked the item as shipped, but they haven’t actually handed it over to the carrier. Check if there’s a tracking number provided.
    • They might still be within the allowed handling time. Sellers often have a specific number of business days to ship after payment (usually 3–5 days).

    3. What You Can Do Now

    A. Contact the Seller

    1. Go to the item's page and select "Contact Seller" from the options.
    2. Ask them politely about the status of the shipment. Example:

      "Hi, I purchased this racket on Dec 1, and it hasn't been shipped yet. Could you please update me on when it will be sent?"

    B. Check the Resolution Center

    If contacting the seller doesn't help, wait until after the delivery window (e.g., Dec 6) and file a claim:

    1. Go to eBay’s Resolution Center.
    2. Select "I didn’t receive my item" once the delivery date has passed.

    C. Request a Refund

    If the seller doesn't respond or fails to ship, eBay will refund you through the Money Back Guarantee.

    4. Why the Option Isn't Showing Yet

    • The "I Haven’t Received It" button will only appear after the latest estimated delivery date has passed. If the seller hasn’t updated shipping or eBay recalculated the delivery time, the system won’t let you file a claim early.

    5. Tips for Future Purchases

    • Check seller ratings and reviews before purchasing.
    • Look for items marked as "eBay Guaranteed Delivery" for faster and more reliable shipping.
