Hello @brooky11,
Thanks for joining the PayPal Community!
I'm sorry to hear your reopened case was closed, and you still haven't received a refund. Once a case is closed automatically without being escalated, it's not eligible to be reopened, even as another case type. This could be why your case was closed once it was reviewed. Alternatively, the merchant may have responded to PayPal, and based on the information they provided, it was closed, showing that the item was originally delivered.
When a case is reopened, it would be reopened as a claim. In a claim status, any responses from either party are only available for PayPal Customer Support and not the opposite party involved. To find out exactly what happened with your case and if there are any other options, you'll want to reach out to Customer Support here.
I hope you find out what happened!
- Meghan
