Seller has sent me photos of receipts and labels that show my address on them, I'm at a loss as to what has happened.
Its possible that they have used a cloned tracking number, its relatively rare but China/HK are the 2 biggest areas that it does happen and the former russian republics such as Belorussia are probably in 3rd.

You might still get it okay, the perpetrators of cloned tracking save money by sending 1 item tracked and say 10 to 20 by normal post.

Your sender might not even be a cloner, he may have fallen foul of one though.
I guess that's possible but I'll never know, sender is adamant that he put my address on the package - Royal Mail say that it's an address in Leeds.

They wouldn't even tell me if it had my name on the package.

I understand that, I wasn't asking to be told the name that it was addressed to. I asked them if it had my name on, told them my name and they wouldn't even give me a yes or no answer.

The seller has gone all quiet now so I've referred it to PayPal.
