Hi, can the seller change the status of your order to "completed" ?
I've noticed a few times the status of an order changed to "completed"
before i got to check and verify the contents.
Last order i just picked up, i wanted to change the status to "received",
but status is allready set on completed (i assume seller checked the tracking).

They CAN, however it is best practice to just leave it alone or let the buyer
do it(from the seller standpoint). Check the order status help page for info.

Unfortunately they can. Thankfully most don’t but sadly some do. It might be
best to message said sellers and ask them to not do that in the future as it
can be very annoying to buyers
