You are half right. :cheer:

There's a MAJOR component in the mix that is unknowingly helping the seller.

Not to mention, Paypal's own system of having the buyer return the item to the seller has TWO MAJOR FLAWS and they both work against the buyer!

A quick tip (and PP will voluntarily argue this point on behalf of a buyer but not for you):

Tracking numbers show that a package arrived at a destination. That tracking does not indicate that the package was received by a person or who that person may or may not have been.

An empty house where a neighbor was lying in wait? Maybe you were on vacation or receiving care at a medical facility. Any number of possibilities.

That is why I *ALWAYS* get SIGNATURE PROOF OF DELIVERY on any package with a value $50 or greater. I insure anything $99 and up, even if I have to pay for it out of my own pocket (I usually weasel it off on the buyer).

Take note of the terminology: Package Tracking vs SIGNATURE PROOF OF DELIVERY

The post office uses those terms exactly as the dictionary defines them. So, don't you forget it.

Don't sign for any package you didn't arrange to receive. If something shows up and the delivery person wants your autograph, tell them you aren't Tom Jones or Paris Hilton and you're just the pool boy or the substitute housekeeper. Sorry, come back some other day.

And by the time they come back, you will already have your money back. All thanks to paypal :clap:

Not your fault the mailman is just "doing his job". :dance:
