Did the buyer's FB mention anything about them liking the product they bought or did it just say things like Great seller? If the FB mentions the product they bought that might help you but if it's just refering to you as a seller, the FB won't help.

I had someone do a chargeback on a silly little Disney kids game. She's claiming unauthorized use of her credit card. Riiiiiiiiiiight. That's all this person buys, Disney Winnie the Pooh items; games, curtains, stickers, books, you name it. It's not as if suddenly she bought, I don't know, a plasma tv or something. She only buys Winnie the Pooh stuff. Who'd think someone would scam on a Disney item. Scammers scam on everything. 😞
Where was the item going? Sellers are only covered by the Seller Protection Policy for confirmed addresses in Canada, the US and the UK. Nowhere else qualifies for SPP even if you had a tracking number for the item.
Closing/ignoring one account and opening a new one is not a good idea. PayPal isn't stupid and they'll know and connect the two. They'll close down the new one and come after you with a collection agency for the amount owing if you don't pay. Not a good idea in my opinion.

Selling overseas is a very risky venture since the costs associated with sending an item properly insured raised the price to a point were it is no longer attractive.
Using CanadaPOST to send your items doubles the risk not to mention delivery timeframes.
If you want to sell overseas then you might want to consider accepting BIDPAY payments only for overseas buyers - like this you would dramatically reduce your risk and liability. International money order are also not a good option since scammers have figured out how to make phoney ones and your bank will hold you liable for the funds.
Each day PAYPAL is becoming more and more of a less desirable means to collect money since their policies are quite anti-business not to mention that their business practices are very questionable to say the least.
We have had hundreds of dollars held in limbo for over 6weeks now without so much as an update....meanwhile their collecting interest on our funds and we will not see one dime of that interest when the funds are finally released.
We are now encouraging our buyers to pay using BIDPAY for all items over US$250 and over FREE shipping or other incentives when they do.
So far BidPay have proven to be very fast, convenient and quite painless as compared to PAYPAL.
One major difference we notice is when we had our first refund to process through BidPaY, they actually asked us "HOW MUCH WE WANTED TO REFUND" - we were quite taken back by this questions since PAYPAL would have simply refund all the buyers money - no questions asked and we would have been the last to know.
Its nice to be actually in-control of your funds rather than at the mercy of PAYPAL.
Cheers,
TIM @ FTL

I received an e-mail from the buyer saying he received the item and shall cancel the dispute with Paypal. What a relief:-).
