Proof of delivery signed for

Currently our posties are not asking us to sign for parcels due to social distancing. How does this work for eBay item not received? 
How would a buyer prove delivery and how would a seller show they have not received an item?

    There continues to be proof of delivery so nothing has changed as far as EBay and PayPal is concerned. For items under £750 there has never been a requirement for a signature anyway, just proof of delivery.

    i don’t use signed for but even my standard parcels continue to show the normal proof of delivery
