Confirmation of a local delivery

[breensandmore]

I had a person that lives locally purchase an item.  I went ahead and delivered following payment and showed it as shipped.  Is there a way that the buyer can confirm they received the item as there is no tracking number and I believe it will count against my top seller status with eBay if delivery isn't confirmed.  How do I handle this?

Did the listing include LOCAL PICKUP and if so, did the buyer select it?  If so, the buyer (and seller, I assume) receives a message from ebay with a QR code as well as a numerical code that can be submitted to show the item was picked up/delivered.

If the listing did not have Local Pickup, and included shipping costs, but it was picked up/delivered, all you can do is select Mark as Shipped.  Since there is no tracking number, the Paypal payment can be held up to 21 days.  The buyer can leave feedback for you.

I'm assuming you didn't list as as local pick up.

• You will get a negative mark for "Tracking uploaded on time and validated".
• If the buyer goes to leave feedback, they will have the opportunity to note whether or not the item was delivered before the due date ... otherwise, you'll get a negative mark for "Late shipment rate".

Last I checked the TRS loss magic #  was 5 %. (1 of 20)  Depending upon the # of sales that you have the 1 "no tracking" may, or may not hurt you.

And TRS is pretty much just a kindergarten "gold star".
