RM parcel problem

I posted RM 2nd class small parcel to buyer on Saturday.

Been checking ebay (though I know it was too early for item delivered) but yesterday looked at tracking on RM website and was surprised to see it had been delivered on MONDAY?
Looking at photo provided it is not my parcel.  This parcel was a light brown colour and had 48 hrs clearly showing on label. Mine was a black bag sent 2nd class.

Checked the tracking number several times and it is correct. 
I have heard nothing from buyer yet but it is still a bit early for delivery from Saturday but as RM has used my tracking number for this other parcel I wonder what they will do when mine is delivered.  IF IT IS DELIVERED!

Has anyone else had this happen?

  • Does the photo/tracking details have the GPS location alongside?

    relax. They likely had more than one parcel.
    postie has scanned multiple items and the photo is for the item with a photo requirement.
    You posted 2nd class which has no phot on delivery requirement. Your tracking would not prompt a photo on the PDA

    Thank you both.

    Yes  the GPS tracking has the correct place and I thought it was odd that I was able to see a photo when I hav'nt before.  It was just odd that it was under my tracking number.

    The delivery postie scans all the items together.
    I assume RMs system adds all data available to the items scanned on that tracking event, to the customer tracking page
