Or you will and it won't be what you ordered, but it will be past the 30 day buyer protection window by then so when you open a dispute they can claim it's been too long since the package was delivered fro you to dispute it.

Open a dispute now saying the item you received was not as described or was the wrong order. If the right item shows up in a few days and you're happy with it...fine. Close the dispute. Otherwise you'll still have opened the dispute during the disputable period.

Sellers are required to ship with tracking. The item you ordered didn't have tracking so the seller is SOL. They've already put in writing that the tracking number was for the wrong item and the right item is untracked.

With eBay, if it smells even a little bit wrong, it's probably a scam.
Totally agree. In fact the seller sent me a new message:

We have sent you a gift to appreciate your order, and the item you purchased was shipped by a regular mail, now it is on the way and everything goes well, you can expect them within 15-45 days, could you wait it patiently?
Another 15-45 days! I told them I'll report the fraud practice (quoted to them the previous buyer comments) if they don't refund within 24 hours.
