Just watch you don't receive a parcel that needs signing for that you're not expecting.
Could be a box of junk the seller has sent to get a signature of delivery. That way he could upload it to Paypal to show fake delivery of the ipad and win the dispute.

And then you change the dispute to a SNAD and post the junk back tracked. Then you win the dispute.0 -
It'll be interesting to see what happens with this.
Hope you get it sorted OP, and keep us updated.0 -
