Tracking number doesn’t match purchaser address!

This is the second time in two days from two different sellers that I have had purchases not make it to me! I went to the post office to see where my package was! They checked the tracking number, wasn’t even close to my address but yes to my town. Then it happened today as well from another seller. I had another package delivered today that was also an eBay purchase that arrived on time! So where is the problem here? The first seller gave me a refund! I appreciate that but here I go with it happening again! It happened once last year, once in while fine but twice in the week? This needs addressing!

If tracking shows delivery but you do not receive anything, check with the shipping service to determine if the tracking number corresponds to a delivery to your address.

 

If not, you may be the victim of a false tracking scam or the seller may have given you the wrong tracking number by mistake. Either way, see here for some good instructions about what you can do about it:

What kind of feedback for selling does your seller have? You can avoid many issues by choosing to only do business with sellers that have a proven track record of delivering what was sold and that have sold similar sorts of items before. Avoid new or unproven sellers, sellers with a pattern of serious negative feedback, or sellers that have drastically changed behavior or that have unexplained gaps in selling feedback.

 

If your seller is a drop-shipper, the seller may have been the victim of the company doing the drop-shipping and providing the tracking number.
