Opened A Non Payment Dispute, Buyer Paid & Now Need To Cancel Trasaction, Help Please

I sold a pine chest of drawers for collection only and the buyer did not pay or respond to messages. I opened a non payment dispute and the buyer suddenly paid via Paypal but still ignored messages and failed to make arrangements to collect. This evening I received a message stating he lived hundreds of miles away ( proved to be true when I investigated ) and therefore he does not wish to proceed. I have refunded his money and tried to cancel the transaction so I could get my selling fees back but this option does not seem available, is this because I have already reported a problem please? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    Yes you can only do one or the other. One case per item.

    Only thing you can do is phone eBay and see if they can/will do anything.
