1st Class is only suitable for items up to £20 and in no circumstances would it cover GOLD. Using the incorrect method of postage is an invitation to scammers that they can get the watch for FREE, by claiming non receipt. You have no option but to refund, if you don't ebay would do it at your expense.
You sold a watch on 4th July
Was it for £149 best offer by any chance?
If you weren't paid, unfortunately you're out of time to open a case and be credited with your final value fees and need to pay them
You will have been billed for the sale of the rose gold watch you sold on 4th July.
If the buyer didn't pay you should have opened an unpaid item case to get your selling fee returned. The time limit to open one is 32 days, so it's too late to open one now. I'm afraid you're stuck with your fees.
If it happens again see: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/sell/unpaid-items.html
Go to your My ebay>Account to view a breakdown of what that invoice is for.
