There were problems on paypal a few days ago and buyers ended up being duplicated on payments to sellers.
I think they refunded your last one mistakenly.
Invoice the buyer to pay again.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

My All mean try re-invoice as long as your purchaser plays fair you will only loose your time not your money.
Personally I would be using the contact us route to get onto Paypal and have them sort it out . As Kernow said there technical error , there mistake.
