If you shipped the phone to the shipping address on the payment transaction details with tracking info marked as delivered and the transaction is marked as eligible for seller protection then you should be covered against unauthorized transaction claim.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

You should never use paypal for an item that is to be collected or personally delivered as you have 0 seller protection.
Your buyer can collect the item and then file a dispute as you have now found out. As you would have no tracking number to prove delivery of the item to him then you would probably lose any dispute.
You should have refunded them and then asked for cash on collection.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
