Ive lost paypal claimback

Help, I recently claimed to Paypal for item not received and have just received this :
In response to your complaint, the seller has provided proof of postage
indicating that the item was posted to you. Therefore, we cannot reverse
this transaction or issue a refund. We encourage you to continue to work
directly with the seller to amicably resolve this dispute.

I NEVER received the item, what do I do now ? It has really peed me off and I dont think I will be buying from Ebay again. I paid for an item and never receievd it yet here I am with nothing to show for my money. Does the Seller have to do a Post Office claim or something like that ?

Basically im asking Have I lost my money here, even though it wasnt an expensive item I am quite angry about it.

Thanks in advance.

    I assume the seller sent the goods recorded then coz paypal need a tracking number to find in the sellers favour. Do you know if this is the case? If so then have u checked the tracking number?
    Accept that some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statue.

    No he sent it standard postage and all he has is proof of postage.

    you cant have proof of postage on standard can you? i thought it had to be special
    You can get proof of posting on anything if you hand it over at the post office counter - a certificate of postage.

    Recorded/special delivery give you proof of delivery.
  • The seller has a proof of Posting slip so after 15 working day if the parcel has not arrived (as is the case with you) they then submit a claim with the Post Office (They will have to ask for a claim form, available at any Post office) and send off the Claim form with a photocopy of the Proof of posting slip.
    The Post Office then reimburse the Seller, who would then reimburse you.
    You need to email your Seller and explain this to him/her.

    Thanks for that, I will do it now although I think the seller will probably ignore me like he ignored my emails. He only started replying to my mail when I told him I was doing a chargeback and then he gave me the excuse that MY emails were bouncing back, funny how nobody else I mailed had any problems receiving from me though.
    Im not gonna buy from Ebay again, im just glad it wasnt a more expensive item.

    Hi
    does this look ok to send to the seller ?

    Hi as you will be aware paypal have decided in your favour. Now to be honest I am not happy about this becasue I never received the item. I have been advised that you can do a claim via royal Mail as you have proof of postage, please can youu start this process off for me.
    I am led to beleive that its you who does the claim but if its the other way and I have to do it can you provide me with any information I need.

    Is this what I send or do I need to change anything ?

    Thanks
