Shame you lost your buyer protection by breaking paypal rules and sending funds for a purchase using the friends/family option.
If you had used the goods/services you could have gotten a refund.
However what does it say on the transaction on your paypal account?

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

So its saying money SENT??
In that case not a lot you can do about it as it has successfully transferred.
However click on the transaction and there should be an email address on that 'details' page.
If so email them and request a refund?
However if they refuse not a lot you can do about it unfortunately.
Be careful as a lot of sellers ask you to use the friends/family option and then pretend that they have not received the funds knowing that there is not a lot you can do about it as you don't have buyer protection.
