How can a seller/e-bay change a delivery date after a dispute has been logged. Yes I bought an item "located in au" for delivery by a particular day. (could have bought much cheaper from China) when the item had not arrived 3 days past due by date contacted Seller by dispute. couple of days later delivery date has changed to reflect normal China delivery times. If the product ever arrives do I get a refund to reflect the price I would have paid for A China sourced product? Guess not.

Since you get I think 31 days after the due date to whinge why would you open a dispute after only 3 days lol.
I give at least another 7-10 business days past the due date b4 I start to whinge worry.
And no to the refund.

I find that incredible too.
I am astounded that the estimated delivery date has changed after a sale. If that has happened, it is not on.
You had every right to open a dispute for an item that was several days past the delivery date. Probably I would wait for a tad more than 3 days over, but that's a personal decision and by that stage, you had most likely been waiting well over a week or two altogether for it to arrive.
Are you absolutely sure the delivery date has changed? Sometimes when i go in to look at past purchases and open the link, the delivery date has changed to current, real time. I think it is because the seller has relisted the same ad or has more than one of that product?
But if I click on 'original ad', then the actual ad I bought from comes up and I can see that original due date.
I would continue with the dispute, maybe show your own screenshot if you can, to reflect their original ad.
But I would be interested to know how you get on with this as surely the ebay system/whatever computer system ebay uses to decide these sorts of cases, would have the correct ETA recorded. I hope so.
