New EBay Scam, New to me anyway.

They must be learning from the amazon sellers that have been doing this for some time (like these clowns >
https://www.amazon.com/sp?_encoding...532247&seller=A3EJ0T2CNRRH26&tab=&vasStoreID= . )
Seller generates tracking#, never actually ship the item.
The way it seems to work there is, once the seller generates the tracking #, amazon credits their account for the payment.
Seller then simply cancles the USPS label and gets credit back from USPS for the price of the paid postage. Tracking just states "lable created" mean while, customer gets shafted waiting for an item that never goes anywhere for weeks and has the hassle of filing & waiting for a refund...
I can only imagine the upside to doing this (large scale), is banking/floating payments and pocketing the $$ from customers that forget they ordered stuff, or simply move on and never file a claim for $$ back.
