Ebay item not arrived

According to my ebay purchase summary, the item was 'Delivered on Wed 15 Oct'. It wasn't.

If I click track package, I get this: "

Delivery history

  1. Wed 15 Oct
    11:59am
    This parcel has been delivered to the customers letterbox
  2. Wed 15 Oct
    10:27am
    ETA of delivery
  3. Wed 15 Oct
    10:08am
    The courier has received this parcel for delivery and will set a delivery time shortly
  4. Wed 15 Oct
    4:45am
    Parcel processed at the depot

It was not put through my letterbox.



It's this item:  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/197756697671

It's strange that it had to go through customs as the location was shown as London. 

I've messaged the seller. What do I do to get ebay to refund me?


What's also strange is that the price I paid was £5.10, whereas the seller now wants more than double that for the same item. It can't really be a scam? Not for £5, surely? So, what's happening?



No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Out of interest first two feedbacks shown are not good.  Cainiao appears to be a shipper for Ali Express so at a guess this seller is doing some kind of business buying from China and shipping direct to customer.
    I think you have to raise a claim for non delivery and see if seller can offer more information like the co-ordinates of where it was supposedly delivered.

    There would seem to be three main possibilities;
    1 the delivery driver has lied about putting the parcel through your letterbox

    2 the address is not correct
    3 the tracking number supplied doesn't relate to your purchase

    Try tracking on evri who delivered the parcel, see if it recognises your postcode as the delivery address. Tell the seller that you have not received the item and ask for proof of the delivery address.
    Also message ebay to report that the listing said it was in London but the package was shipped from China. Tell ebay if evri do not confirm your postcode as the delivery address.

    Did you not get an e-mail with proof of delivery ? Have you checked the Evri site ? I have received 2 Ebay / Evri parcels this week and both have photo and map in the e-mail and on line tracking.  You will have to use the Evri tracking code H06R4A0012472901

    It will be interesting to note whether it recognises your postcode as correct.
