You only have seller protection if you send to the paypal registered address of the buyer at the time of payment.

If they wanted it sent to another address they should have added a 'gift' address and selected it when they sent you the funds.

So would you suggest refunding it and not do business with them?

I just advise how it works, up to you to risk assess your own transactions.
