·5 months agoWhen Ebay refund a buyer on your behalf, you have a month to appeal their decision.
So, report the buyer to 'report fraud' - which used to be called Action Fraud.
Report the buyer to Ebay.
Appeal the Ebay decision giving your report fraud reference and any other evidence you have.
How to appeal a case
You can appeal cases that were "closed without seller resolution" from the transaction defect report in your Seller Dashboard.

OP5 months agoHi thank you yes I have contacted action fraud in conjunction with eBay reports yet they still refunded the buyer as it seems far easier for eBay to do this than investigating the matter and then they just seem to keep putting up the fees for us that do pay up it all seems very corrupt and makes things totally impossible to start a small business on eBay these days what with situations like this as well as all the wardrobing that is happening I have never known eBay to be this bad and I have been an active user since 2003 and I have sold 1600 items in two years on this account alone yet i now feel like some kind of crook due to the way eBay have handled the situation I think eBay have gone to far with buyer protection and constantly leave sellers in the could so as of the 30 th of April I will be exploring other avenues to sell on as I am not be treated this way bye anyone and to be quite frank I am sick of seeing 26% of my money going to America whilst pennies go to our government from my taxes in comparison way to much money leaving our country really it has to stop before we all run out a
