I'd fight it Jon. Don't give in and fight it every step. You're completly in the right and it's the third party that's
bused the system.
I understand you just want to give up but then they've won. Paypal looses nothing. Buyer gains goods and money back and the
"smugness" he's fooled the system!
Kick off.

Could there be a case of fraud against your buyer? Over a matter of £27, plod might not be too interested.
I wouldn't let it lie though.

I'd call the police, report the scrote for fraud AND Paypal for aiding and abetting a fraud.
Tell ebay/paypal what you are doing and then take them to the small claims court, that should wake them up.
I honestly believe they don't even bother reading seller information and automatically adjudicate for the buyer and rely on 99% of sellers not
taking it any further.

That is a nightmare situation. I don't know what to add but I had high hopes for your case. How else can a seller protect against fraudulent
buyers? What more do they want you to do??

if plod aren't interested, ask them why they're turning a blind eye to fraud

Jon, is there a dispute number, or some means of Paypal account holders of referencing this case?
Maybe if enough of us log on and ask for clarification as to why, with total proof of delivery, they judged against you, they may sit up?
Ok, we'll probably just get a 'sod off' (if any) reply, but if they get enough, and we mention a 2000 member forum (near enough...)
all watching the case, maybe it'll concentrate their minds a little.
This is Paypal taking the easy option, and basically rewarding fraudsters

Dont let them get away with this - it's an outrage!
Tell them you'll be taking the matter to a small claims court. If you really have proof of postage, delivery and a signature you'll win
immediately (if any representative of paypal ever turns up anyway).

I'd also write a letter detailing the incident to their head office (not through the normal dispute channels where you'd just be fobbed
off) complaining and see if that gets anything done.

You would think THIS would be
enough ?
Well on top of this we also have obtained and given to payapl a copy of the signature given on delivery.
How they came to this conclusion god alone knows, at the moment we are trying to apeal, but guess what you cant apeal, the case is closed ???

Read the information in the link provided by robinbstd, it's solid gold. Essentialy the actions of Paypal in the UK are governed by the FSA,
which means the financial ombudsman mediate any disputes, and this costs Paypal £360 a pop, irrespective of outcome. All the info you need is on that
page.

If they are doing business as a bank in the UK they are under the FSA rules, at least that's my understanding. If it wasn't true there
wouldn't be a UK registered bank in the country any more IMO.

Dont let it drop mate. I have several complaints in with ebay at the minute as theyv removed 4 of my lisitings in the last 2 months where there hasnt
been anything against ebay rules and they mad me take a test so i could carry on selling. Ebay and paypal are taking the right wee ATM.
Just look at the new feedback system and thatl tell you that sellers have feck all rights. Theyv taken over the world and fucked it all up.
As said write to ebay head office and go to the fsa ombudsman. It may just be 27 quid but the principle has to outway.

I've just found an article in the May edition of Which? magazine about disputes with PayPal. Their advice is to go to the FOS. Worked a treat in
the case they reported on. I just hope you don't let them get away with it.
