Local Pickup and QR Code

I had a buyer make a purchase a little over 3 weeks ago.

I am in Texas and they are in Louisiana and they requested to pick up the unit since this was for a missionary trip and they wanted to save money on shipping costs.

This is fine and I told them when they come to pick up, to bring the 6 digit QR code as I have done in the past.

They finally showed up this morning to get the unit and they had the 6 digit code with them.

I tried to enter the code as I have done in the past, but it won't let me. All I can do is mark as "picked up".

Have they changed how it's done or did it time out on me since it took them over 3 weeks to get it picked up?

My understanding is that you can only enter the QR code into eBay's system via the App.

 

In the EXTREMELY unlikely case that you have an INR claim for this sale you can provide the QR code at that time (so don't lose it!).

 

I do Local Pickups on a semi regular basis, I never bother with the QR code at all (don't have a phone or use the App). My pickups are generally of modest value so I'm not very concerned, in addition I just don't get the type of issues that get reported here, I've shipped lots of orders with no tracking and can count on one hand the number of issues I've had in the past 24 years on  eBay.

Well, I used to be able to enter it as a tracking number, but wasn't able to this time. All it says now where I would enter the tracking number is "local pickup".

This is a $3,095 item, so it wanted to enter the code so I am covered.

I guess I will enter it in the notes for the item.
