Did I just get scammed or is this normal?

I was selling my MSI laptop on eBay. A guy, verified on eBay messaged me. Saying he would pay me $100 less than what I’m asking for but will pay $200 for shipping through PayPal. He needed it shipped to Nigeria. I agreed and a little later I got an email from PayPal saying I just received a payment for that much from him. I asked a couple people and they both said it was obviously weird but he was verified on eBay with a lot of good reviews on him. So I went to the post office and had it shipped. The sent the shipping info to the PayPal email and they said they’re payment review team had to verify the shipment. Once it was verified, they said they would process my payment to my account within 2 to 5 days and I haven’t received anything on my PayPal account.
