eBay tracking software algorithm is faulty ... it will register a simple transaction info # as legit tracking number ... --- they should at least post a Caution or warning if someone by mistake inputs the WRONG numbers they will be liable for their mistakes ...

There is no way to validate a tracking number entered by a seller as valid until it has been scanned by the carrier.
You want the impossible.

it is NOT impossible to POST a simple Warning as a precaution to prevent future legal action

It isn't eBay's responsibility to make sure the seller is placing the correct tracking numbers into an order, it is the sellers.
I suggest purchasing your shipping labels on eBay to prevent further errors...problem solved.

but again, how would ebay know that you were supposed to put a 9 instead of an 8??

What legal action would there be if the seller screwed up and entered the wrong tracking number?

That's why you double check before hitting the submit button.

I don't think that sellers that input incorrect tracking information will be subject to legal action. Sure, maybe an annoyed buyer and a forced refund, but not legal action.
Seriously, I don't think that eBay needs to warn adults that mistakes will be their responsibility to cover.
