INR on pickup item?

Hi there-a week ago I bought an item of BIN furniture on Ebay and paid by Paypal.

Although the item was listed as pickup only, it stated in the listing that the dealer would deliver to the UK mainland for £60, which was vital, as they're a hundred miles away and my car isn't big enough to do the pickup.

I sent the seller a message through Ebay and I've heard absolutely nothing. Tried again today, and still no reply.

I know (I think I know) they're a reputable trader-I've bought something of similar value from them in the past, and it IS holiday season.

But it's really inconvenient, and I can't help wondering-if this situation goes on much longer, can I claim INR and get the money back through Paypal?

Thanks for any replies.

    Have you been invoiced for, and paid, the £60?

    No...last time I was asked to pay the courier on delivery. So I just paid for the item and messaged to ask for delivery to be arranged as before.

    (This is now academic, as the seller has finally been in touch with a delivery date, but thank you for your help!)
