As a chargeback is filed directly via the buyers creit card and not via a paypal dispute and its the card company that make the decision then sadly there is not a lot you can do about it.

My advice is to not sell any virtual goods or tickets using PayPal. You have very little protection from chargebacks.
I sold $550 for some event tickets, which were then charged back. I checked with the show promoter/agency and confirmed the tickets were scanned/used. No luck so far.

Actually you have NO protection for chargebacks on paypal for virtual items.
Paypal clearly states under seller protection that it does not cover you for selling items that are collected / virtual items and motor vehicles etc.
You can use paypal when you sell them but at your own risk.
