I simply sent ebay the tracking info with delivery confirmation.
Once Amazon got involved with the used market, ebay dropped their listing fees. Items used to have to be sold or you'd pay to relist. This just let's sellers inflate their prices and leave it for months.

I sold a guy a limited production numbered 1/18 die cast model of Sox and Martin's GTX. It had never been out of the box and I put it inside another box wrapped in bubble wrap. He claimed it was damaged and ebay gave him an instant refund and had him ship it back to me, but I didn't receive it. My last attempt at selling anything on there.
But I still prefer to buy on eBay as they are doing there best to offer better deals than Amazon in many cases.
