Seller says Ebay cancelled sale after they shipped

I purchased a CPAP heated hose and the seller shipped it later that afternoon. The seller messaged me late at night to say that after sending the item, eBay has cancelled the listing and told them it is an item that needs a prescription and are refunding me. The seller asked me to refuse the package because they cannot contest it.    I checked my eBay purchase history, and the listing is cancelled however I wasn't sent a message from eBay explaining the listing was cancelled. I wasn't refunded yet so I just want to be sure I won't be out of the money if I DO refuse or return the package and Paypal doesn't refund me.  Is this legit? ... View more

I know right. If family sends me money and asks me to use it to buy something, I better hope my auto payment for Netflix, Crunchyroll, or Funimation doesn’t go through and use the balance they sent me... half the time I end up having to cancel using my PayPal card and use a credit card instead. This “balance” problem defeats the purpose of having family send me money. ... View more

This doesn't work. I click on profile>payments , but there is no Update option. There is "Manage Automatic Payments", and "Your preferred way to pay". Neither of these give the option to stop using balance first.   Under Automatic Payment, each subscription I have my bank as my payment preference, but below that it still says "We'll use your balance first". I guess there is no choice in this. ... View more
