I was scammed out of an item and money
 
 I was scammed out of an item and money by a buyer that didn't want to cover their parcel fees. I sent out the item same day as the buyer requested and The buyer clearly got the item as described with no issue. The only issue is they did not want to be responsible for the parcel fees they are owed I did everything I was supposed to as a seller. I was going to even accept the request for return but as I explain to the buyer I couldn't accept because the funds have already been released into my bank and was spent It would set me back financially. I sent them screenshots with dates shown which the funds have been released a long time ago I explained if they were simply sitting on standby I had to be able to issue the refund no problem but unfortunately the funds were already released and it is out of my hands. Instead of being understanding and just dealing with what they should have they abused eBay's return policy and opened up a return stating that they did not receive what they purchased the item was not as described. I called customer support and explain my story and was able to tell them to look at the messages and customer support agreed with me that they were taking advantage of the situation. However it was an international affair and the policies are different every email I received and message was in German I never got one single English email or phone call from a representative even when I was told that there would be one reaching out I was lied to and poorly handled. Now I am out of almost $900 and a graded card that they never returned I am trying my best to dispute this or at least reach the right channels is there any hope or legal action that I could take? I'd greatly appreciate it I feel like there needs to be more protection for us Sellers this is wrong
