Tracking removed from order.
So, yesterday I fullfilled an order and tracking was on the order.
Now I checked it today and it's in my Paid/Shipped but with no tracking.
So attempted to readd the tracking and get the message "Tracking number added is already used by a different seller.".
What can I do?

·2 years agothat happened once to me....(but not with that error message)
did you check this page to see if it is populated there?
https://www.ebay.com/ship/labels/seller-hub
eventually, it showed back up on my Paid & Shipped page

OP2 years agoUnfortunately, I didn't buy the label on eBay.
It was added to the order yesterday, but when checked today shows no tracking on the order.
It's still in Paid and Shipped. Just no tracking, and can't add it.

·2 years agoSounds like a glitch, assuming you did a direct C&P.
ETA: Another curious question: If you go to the USPS website, does tracking show origination at your zip code?
Can you just add the tracking number to "add note" section of the order so it's there and shows as having been added within your handling time?

OP2 years agoIt's uploaded automatically via PirateShip. Never had an issue.
Yeah, the tracking all shows correct information for origination. Technically I haven't shipped it yet.
I'm guessing the only way to fix this would be to void the label and buy a new one.

·2 years agoI did 3 with Pirateship yesterday and 2 were automatic postback and 1 I had to copy & paste (because I did not import it)
I just checked and all 3 are viewable in Paid & Shipped, so I am not sure what may have happened here....
If you already shipped it, and want to protect your "uploaded on time", well...I think you know what to do
what does the tracking info say for that number right now? (or were you just now taking it to the PO)

OP2 years agoOkay, I think a workaround fixed it.
Did the USPS alias, 420+zip+tracking. and eBay accepted it.
Hopefully that doens't cause issues.
Little concerning that it added the tracking successfully yesterday, and it was removed. Then I'm guessing since it was already used (by me) it refused to let it be used again (weird message another seller used?!?!).
Because this isn't really an issue of PirateShip failing to sync the tracking. eBay says my brand new tracking label (created last night) used by a different seller. 🤔

·2 years agogood thinking...i had not thought of that....
where is this shipment physically right now?

·2 years agodid you have multiple orders and transpose one or two?
Does your shipping service not 'post-back' to ebay for you?
(or was this manual from the start?)
Double check your receipt for input error if it was manual, too....
