Decision receipt (decided by code, not AI)
Rule matched: Weak case, within your settlement limit, and PayPal allows offers

Close the proof gap2 missing
Tracking shows the item was delivered
Download the delivery record from the carrier's website. It should show delivered, the date and the address.
Delivered to the address on the PayPal transaction
The address on the record must match the PayPal transaction. A later redirect can void Seller Protection.
Add a file you have
Code checks the dates and the address. It can't confirm the file with the carrier, so your reply says who supplied it, and PayPal makes the final call.

“A parcel did come last week but I haven't opened it yet.”
Read the transcript
Agent: Thanks for calling about order DD-1003. This call is recorded, is that okay?
Customer: Yes, that's fine.
Agent: Did the keychain reach you?
Customer: A parcel did come last week but I haven't opened it yet.
“I think I left it at the front door.”
Read the transcript
Seller: Hi, this call is recorded, is that okay?
Driver: Sure, no problem.
Seller: Do you remember this parcel?
Driver: I think I left it at the front door.
What to do next
Ask the buyer to confirm this in writing in the PayPal case. Their written words carry more weight than a transcript.
A driver's word isn't carrier proof. Ask the carrier for its delivery record, then add it to the case.
Calls show what someone said. They don't replace the carrier's delivery record, and they don't change the recommendation. All calls
Seller Protection check

Claim type is covered
Item Not Received and Unauthorized claims can be covered.
Filed with PayPal, not the card issuer
PayPal's own channel, so the issuer exclusion doesn't apply.
PayPal marks the payment eligible
Not stated on this dispute.
Carrier shows delivered
Terms ask for carrier proof with a delivered status.
Delivered to the transaction address
The recipient address must match Transaction Details. A later redirect voids eligibility.
From PayPal's published US terms. PayPal alone decides eligibility.
What each choice costs
| Fight and win | 0.00 USD |
| Fight and lose | 12.00 USD |

Fighting beats this offer if your chance of winning is above 50%. We don't guess that chance: nobody publishes win rates for PayPal sellers.
