@Anonymous,
SpeedPak tracking, is used for the international shipping of an item from China. Once it reaches the U.S. it is handed over to the USPS for the domestic delivery. The tracking info on ebay should show a USPS tracking number.
If you have been the victim of a fake tracking scam. The seller sends something, an envelope or small empty box with tracking to a different address, and uses the Delivered scan to win an Item Not Received (INR) dispute. eBay's automated INR system is not allowed access to anything but the scan information, due to shipping company's privacy policies. eBay's reps cannot get specific label information from a shipper because they are neither the sender or recipient.
When you file an initial dispute it will be closed in favor of the seller. In the message you receive telling you that, there should be an appeal button. You have 30 days from losing the dispute to appeal, but in order to win you have to do some leg work. The info below is what you have do do when this happens with any shipping agency.
You will have to go to your P.O. or a local UPS or FedEx store. You need to bring a copy of your order details page which shows your address and the tracking number with you. If you bought using a phone or tablet, you can bring that to show the clerk the order details. In the case of FedEx and UPS, if you can call them first and get them to send you an email saying the label's address does not match yours. bring a copy of that or your device with the email, with you to one of their stores. eBay will not accept an email as proof, because emails can be faked.
You want to ask the clerk to check the label address against yours on the order details page, and also to check the Package type/size/weight info to see if was is appropriate for what you should have received. . If the info does not match up, you ask the clerk to write a note on Company stationary saying in general that the shipping label's address was not yours, and if applicable that the package type/size/weight was not right for what you should have received. Show them a copy of the email, which may get the clerk to agree to writing the note. explain that ebay doesn't accept emails. Do not ask them to write specific address or package info, they cannot give it out. Have the clerk print their name then sign and date the note.
Once you have the note, you can appeal the dispute ruling, if you have lost an appeal already, you contact ebay through their Facebook or Instagram social media pages. (links below) You can write out what happened in the message, and what you found out, and add a CLEAR photo or a scan of the note to an Appeal or message. If you go the social media route which is recommended, but not always necessary, if you get the info before filing an appeal. The social media reps know about the fake tracking scams and can authorize a refund, but you will need to have the seller's username and the ebay item number. At the end of your message give them your real and ebay username. It can take a couple of days before you get a reply.

In the future I strongly suggest that you check the feedback profile pages of each seller you intend to buy from, before bidding on or buying their items. You can access a seller's feedback profile page from near the bottom of listing pages. Use the See All Feedback button below where their name is in a large font. On the profile page if the seller has received neutral or negative feedback, click on the numbers of them to read only those comments. Never go by a feedback percentage alone. Some people who have been scammed but did not file a dispute may have left feedback saying they never received their items.
As a long time member you know how to find a feedback profile page. The above is for newer members.
