Buyer broke my brand new in box graphics card and Paypal accepted their claim weeks after sale.

Can I do anything about this or am I out $500 and stuck with a returned dead graphics card?

What an absolutely TERRIBLE policy. I sent Paypal proof of purchase, proof the card worked (from the buyer), proof the card was sealed in box. Unless they somehow fix this I will NEVER be selling another item on their platform and I would advise others to do the same.

Sadly as paypal never see the item involved they make a judgement call and there is always one party that thinks it is unfair.

Not a lot you can do via paypal but you can still pursue the buyer in a small claims court if you have one in your country?
