INR. hmm trust or not trust.

The dilemma for me is that I know USPS can do a poor job at delivery. (I get a ton of other people's mail).

Anyways, USPS did delivery with Parcel Select so no insurance, but insurance doesn't really matter since the tracking shows 'Delivered'.

They are pushing that they never got it regardless of what tracking says.

I contacted USPS and the supervisor told me he asked the normal carrier and they fully Believe it got delivered correctly.

I know I will win the INR. But I don't know if I should.

For context the item is around $120 camera drone.

I advised them to go to their local PO and talk to the supervisor.

I feel if they are being honest then it could have been porch pirates maybe.

I feel kinda dirty to win INR.

If it was lower value not that $120 is high value I'd probably just eat it to make them happy.

I Never once said that. I never said you can purchase parcel select anymore.

In fact I said the opposite.

HOWEVER.

If you use UPS Ground Saver AKA UPS SurePost. If the package is transfered to the USPS for delivery then the service is USPS Parcel Select.

I don't understand how people are having trouble understanding this.

The service clearly says Parcel Select on the USPS tracking page. I even showed a screen shot.

That response is what I got from a ticket with USPS.

The Supervisor and Post Master both believe it was delivered correctly.

They have closed the ticket as resolved due to successful delivery.

That gps bring wrong which technically is only actual evidence is super sus.

The only evidence of actual successful delivery is testimonial.

If you believe the Supervisor and Post Master that it was delivered correctly, win the INR and let it close. Deal with the chargeback if that actually happens.

In my occasional search for packages that are claimed to be misdelivered, I've talked to people at the post office to get additional information that will support their testimonial that it was delivered correctly. Of course I also believed the buyer was an opportune scammer.

Here is another package that got delivered yesterday. Can you tell me what the service is ?

I missed that you bought a UPS label. 

[robbie31415]

I'm sorry, it's just that multiple people have felt the need to imply I'm wrong about Parcel Select even though I know I'm not.

And for others most likely Parcel Select will not be phased out from these services because then the USPS would be held liable for damaged packages from the UPS.

Sorry, in all fairness I didn’t see UPS mentioned initially.   I see in shown later, though, after rereading the thread.  Sorry for the interruption.

Still not your fault if the carrier messes up.

Simply becsuse it shows delivery shouldn't mean I should win.

I know I can win.

But that isn't the point.

However the fact the carrier actually asked about a missing package at the address and they denied anything missing makes me think I'm dealing with a scammer.

I would call the buyer on that fact and ask why he's denying missing a package to the mail carrier if he says he didn't get yours. I always let a scammer know that I know things, then I'd win the INR, and the scammer will probably go away.

You have a very valid point with this (possibly being a scammer). If I had all the sales info I could take a guess on what the odds are you're dealing with a scammer, or are you dealing with an "opportune scammer" who only scams when he has the opportunity to do it and get away with it. Your opportune scammer is not your regular scammer that goes on eBay to scam items, he sees the opportunity to get a free item and acts on it because he lacks moral compass.

While I understand the desire to do that.  I'd likely feel the same way.  I think approach I would take is to just get out of this mess as quick as I can and without getting my feedback dinged.  The OP can win the INR and should.  I'd leave the rest of this mess along.  No need to borrow trouble.

I'd wait until this transaction was over and then I'd report the buyer asking Ebay to review the emails between us.

Probably the last thread ill ever read on this forum but I have to do it...  and I know I'm setting myself up for a rebuttal lol but GOD dam my eyes are almost bleeding from reading this...

If one spends this much time on a such a simple issue, how does one manage to get anything done as a seller (efficiency in problem solving is one thing) but... ? God speed ! Lol

[robbie31415]

I spend too much time on the forums.

Completely agree.

Right now I'm training a new lister so I have a bit of extra time on my hands while I monitor.

Also it's not completely about problem solving, it's more about seeing the thought process of other people and making sure our policies sort of align with a general consensus.
