Making a partial refund for combined postage

Hope someone can help. I sold a couple of items to the same person; in my description I said that I'd be happy to combine postage, and the buyer messaged me to ask me to do so. However he then paid before I had a chance to send an invoice, meaning he'd paid both sets of postage. The items have now arrived and I'd like to refund him the extra, but I can't see how to do that through ebay. Any ideas? Or should I just ask for his paypal address so I can do it directly. It's only £3 but I feel I should make the effort having promised to!

On drop down menu of the orders press refund then deduct the P&P for one using drop section refund postal costs. Ideally once they have bought it do a refund before sending off and add a note that it's a combined order and partial refund off postage. Another issue can be how they bought them separately or added to a basket firstly because that is separate orders and INR would require tracking so that's why you add a note and state combined orders and repeat same tracking on both.
So it's LEAVE FEEDBACK next to it is a drop down menu scroll to the bottom SEND REFUND.
Amount £**.**
Reason Drop Down Menu (Postage cost)
Confirm Submit
Hold Tight while we process your refund
Then email stating it's been completed.
That's it done.1 -

Thanks! Yes, it's pretty similar on the web version and seems to have worked ok. It even gives you back the fee payable on the amount refunded automatically.The help is much appreciated!0
