Buyer opened a request a month after the item was posted claiming that he has not received it

Hi all, Anyone could share some advice? I sold an item a month ago, and then the buyer opened a request claiming he has not received it. Given Royal Mail 2nd class was used and not tracked therefore I dont have any evidence that the item was actually...
