eBay Bought item arrived 5 months later

[ingodwetrust4everjohn]

I've bought an item from China before COV19 and I

got a refund after  I opened a dispute with PayPal  (despite the PayPal delay in refund)

however That item arrived Five Months later and I

knew I have to do the right thing and Find that

Chinese seller and refund him,

but the problem here

is that the seller is not Independent and he works

as an Agent to somebody else or he works with a

bunch of other Team

[marnotom!]

Wouldn’t the payment still be sent to the same PayPal address, though?

If you received your refund through Paypal, you can refund the refund.

On your PP account under Activity, you can change the Search to 2020. Then under All Transactions, check ... hmmmm... Reversals? Refunds?  .... even finding the original payment could help.

If you really can't find it but still feel bad, most sellers do have some form of insurance against losses like this.  Perhaps you could donate the equivalent to a Food Bank in lieu ?
