    Report him to Ebay, and get your money back from either Paypal or your credit card company/bank (if Paypal won't help).

    In fairness the fees for the person making the payment are nil. Its the seller who gets hammered...

    Can your credit card company obtain a refund for you?

    It looks like u have to wait for a month to let paypal sort it out. I believe they wil refund the money.but if you do not wish to wait, just ring the creditcard company and cancel the transaction. It wil work.

    Hmm - you only paid for it 5 weeks ago and you do have to allow time before you can claim.

    I have used paypal to get refunds twice and it took about 3 weeks from date of claim. I used my credit card company to get a refund once and despite it being a typed instruction they managed to dispute a paypal payment rather than the actual one (non-paypal) that I had requested - it took 6 weeks to clear things up with paypal that time.

    On the flip-side of the buyer being scammed there is also the increasingly common case of sellers being scammed

    so I suppose Paypal are trying to make a balance between buyers and sellers...
