eBay closed case in my favour, no return label provided — return item or not? | Buying

Hi, I bought an item that turned out to be counterfeit. The seller wasn’t accepting a return/refund until eBay stepped in, and eBay has now closed the case in my favour with a full refund (pending). There was no mention of returning the item, and no official return label has been provided through eBay. The seller is now asking me to send the item back privately. I don’t really care to keep it, but I also don’t want to do anything that could come back to bite me later. In this situation, should I return it, or only follow eBay’s official process? Thanks!
