If Ebay refunded, rather than you refunding voluntarily, you can appeal their decision.

Make sure you have the tracking showing delivery to a different address to use as your evidence.

Put 'appeal a decision' into 'help & contact' top left of your Ebay page.

This happened to me and I contacted eBay and asked them why they didn't check the tracking information when an item shows that it's back with the seller before issuing a refund because if they did they'd see that it hadn't been sent to my address, but one that was 3 counties away! 

 

eBay refunded me, I've no idea if that was out of their own coffers or if they reversed the refunded payment.

 

Once you get your refund I'd report that phone as stolen (I presume that you made a note of the IMEI number).
