If you have posted an item to an address other than the one that is registered on paypal/ eBay then the paypal guarantee does not apply.
It is a common scam to ask for an item to be sent to a diffrent address and then claim it did not arrive and file a complaint to get the cash back.
I am afraid that in this case paypal will side with the buyer and take the cash back...

No useful advice, but I sympathies with you on the eBay/PayPal thing. When I was last conned by a seller I found one would reach a page where it insisted on a postage number I have no previous information that I was supposed to get one. That's a problem with dealing with machines and not human beings, they are just so inflexible.

Best of luck re your problem.

Its no help-but I had an email 3 weeks ago saying 'item broken in transit please refund or will contact ebay' well I have kept email as haven't sold on ebay for 2 years almost, not heard since, so scammers are around. I can proove no money went in paypal anyway-can't you do that? or contact them?

Even if you sent it to valid address, without a tracking number the buyer automatically gets a refund.
Proof of postage is not enough for PayPal or eBay, they need proof of delivery.
