Its not their jurisdiction. Postal crimes are handled by postal inspectors but theres really nothing they can do besides open a case unless theres cameras on his mailbox or outside his door for some reason

I think it would be grossly unfair to the seller to badger him/her for a refund - as suggested earlier in this thread. If the seller uses recorded delivery there's not really much more he can do.

I would contact the seller immediately, and also open a claim on ebay for not receiving the item. If it arrives you can always cancel the ebay claim.

You should do this as soon as you suspect something isn't right with a sale.

Good Luck!

ebay has made it clear that the seller is responsible to get the item to the buyer. It's not shared between the parties.

Did you look into the buyer protection FAQs?

The seller did get the item to the buyer. He shipped it with tracking info. Whats hes supposed to do drive it over to his house himself and hand deliver it? The buyer freely admits he suspects someone took it. Its a terrible situation and I feel bad for both parties in all honesty but the seller didnt do anything wrong. I would just suggest he ask for valuable items in the future to be sent sig confirmation so that his landlord cant snag them

And how does ebay determine if the seller has complied with that responsibility? By looking for the delivery confirmation. No delivery confirmation then the seller is still responsible. But once the post office delivery confirmation reports that the item was delivered the seller is off the hook. As far as ebay is concerned the item was delivered to the buyer. Even if it wasn't and was delivered somewhere else.
