    Could they mean Fedex? Otherwise no idea. I would ask how they send it so you could try and track, as if it is just a fake one, you can then contact Paypal about it.
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Thanks to everyone who posts competitions. You are the stars of the board :T:j:T
  • this is what it says-
    Tracking Company: Royal Mail
    Tracking Number: FAD: 269434
    when i asked seller how it was sent he said 2nd class!

    That's just a proof of postage with the local PO branch code. Not a tracking number.

    I'd phone PayPal and tell them that it is a fake number , they sometimes refund quickly if they think seller is being funny with the dispute.

    FAD number is on all post office receipts. It's not a tracking number. It could be the seller just thinks that this is a tracking number rather than they are being deliberately deceitful.
  • thanks soolin i will do
    seller started being funny sequence so iam concerned about it.
