I sold virtual items to a friend who has recently became angry at the rest of us and left the group and removing us from social media.
There are 4 payments from him in my account, 3 of them dating from december 2015,
If he decides to charge back, knowing he has sent me 4 payments before will he be able to win the case?

You have up to 180 days to open a dispute on paypal in the UK BUT a chargeback is generally done via a buyers credit card and that again is about 180 days.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

The maximum time a buyer has to file a chargeback with their credit card company is typically 120 days after the expected delivery of the agreed goods or services. Certain exceptions may apply.

But he also sent multiple payments, would they not see this?
