I was like Ur welcome good doing business........then 2day later they sent a message saying they looked back on card and noticed damage ?? Then they sent a series of pics of damaged cards I said you already sent pics of card received and it's as I sent perfect condition he reakns no the light was hitting the damage .wen I said that's not my card and I want a video of front and back ...because I know he's keeping the card so obviously he isn't going to damage it and I know that he wldnt be able to show me that as proof he keep excusing and excusing then after deleting more messages because I kept pointing out look that's not my card he just decided to to an item not described.fast forward he sends a 20c energy card leaves me a bad review. I of course opened a case immediately the eBay agent looked thru everything and confirmed they cld clearly see this is a scammer and I would receive full refund and case closed .

"Wat is going on I'm in tears it's a 700 pound card guys"
So do you mean eBay went back on their word after saying they'd close the case ?
Instead they closed the case and refunded the scammer ?
Is the buyer in Australia ?
If you're in the UK, it may be best to post on the UK forum where they can advise you how to report to the police / online fraud IF this is what happened

·2 months agoIt's not unusual to be found not at fault after speaking with an agent, with the buyer also being refunded.
In such instances, eBay funds the refund and nothing is withdrawn from the seller's account.
What you've posted here seems to be consistent with the above.
Here's a screenshot of the refund message...
