'I guess the buyer did? I dont know. I paid for rm postage to send plus been charged for a label i don't need. I expect the refund to come to me to help pay for the postage i purchased independently of ebay.'

I think the buyer probably did then; If *you* paid, I think you'd remember setting the sale up as 'seller pays postage' (I think buyer pays is the 'default' ?)

This means the unused label cost will be refunded to the buyer, automatically, in about 30 days.

So this means you won't have been *charged* for the unused label, but you won't get a refund of the label you bought independently. ☹️ (there is no mechanism for that kind of refund..)

So you will be down by *one* set of postage costs, but not two....
