Hi, I purchased a mobile phone, I received it but it is faulty and I want to return it for a refund. I tried contacting the seller through EBay, no response. I then opened a dispute and sent another message and waited a day, no response so escalated it to a claim. PayPal says it will give the seller 10 days to respond. What happens if the seller does not respond then, does PayPal then decide in my favour and I post the item back to the address that the seller has on PayPal and provide proof of posting, does PayPal then refund me? Thanks, Lucy

Pity you didn't open an Ebay dispute first as if you won the seller would have to pay the return postage costs.
However if the seller does not respond at all then you 'may' not have to return it first and if they refuse to refund and you have won the dispute then paypal will refund you under their buyer protection policy.
If paypal do tell you to return the item then you would have to send trackable (proof of delivery and not just proof of postage) at your own expense BUT can claim it back again if you have activated the below link on your paypal account.

If Ebay found in your favour then the seller would have to issue a prepaid label for you to return the item.
So they pay shipping costs.
Secondly paypal only pay up to a certain amount for shipping costs and you are limited to x8 returns in one year.

There are several options when you click to 'return item' there are a list of 5 options BUT when you click 'more' its extends the options to 11 and the lower 6 ones are to report the item as misdescribed / damaged etc.
So if you select one of the lower 6 then if Ebay finds in your favour then the seller has to supply a prepaid label for you to send the item back again.
You can do that up to 30 days, after that you have to open a Paypal dispute as you would no longer be Ebay covered.
