If you paid import VAT when you checked out (so paid it to ebay), and now you are being asked for it again, that suggests that there is something wrong with the export documents attached to the package and so your Customs can't see it's already been paid.

 

You should see how you would be able to claim back the secod charge, probably from your own Customs as it was correctly charged by ebay.

 

If you refuse to pay it then the UK money back guarantee would not be available to you.
