Have you contacted your bank?

My suggestion is to also  place your post on ebay.com.  

Hi guys   I really do appreciate all your help and insights I know we are all busy! 

So in terms of what the buyer claims...with PSA graded collectable cards, they get a "certification" number so that you can search them up online and view their record of authenticity. 60+ days after successful delivery of the item, the buyer contacted me saying that the certification number was deactivated. I searched it up online and the certification was deactivated AFTER delivery of the card. I don't know what's happened to the card / certification number but my question is how am I the one responsible for something that happened to the card once it was in the buyers possession? It would be like buying a new car, crashing the car and then taking it back to the dealership 60 days later and having the dealership refund you because the car "doesn't match description". I can't believe the buyer wasn't even made to return the item first. If this isn't the most clear cut example of a scam then I don't know what is.

Also, I did contact my bank, they said if we were to challenge the chargeback it would result in me not being able to receive payments from eBay in the future. So here I am stuck, still trying to make sense of this.

Thank you, I will do that

Have you contacted  PSA,  from my limited research, certification deactivation could mean the item has been reported stolen or altered, or the certification number has been used to create multiple counterfeit items.

I presume the PSA deactivation would make the card virtually worthless
