Worst case scenario is that Paypal tells you (not asks) to send the mini's back then this person may still even try to initiate a chargeback to further screw you over. Chances are it will go through. You could lose the mini's, deposit, time spent, and end up with a frozen account.
I hate to admit this but simply walking away and taking the easy route makes the most sense. I would not screw around with Paypal because they simply seem to make dumb decisions.
Refund the deposit minus anything you had in Paypal fees. eBay the mini's following Magical_memories advice to recover all the costs. That us the route I would take.
I think it would be appropriate to post the person's eBay ID so we could avoid this person. Hopefully a mod can chime in on this.
First off, you only have 45 days to request a refund via PayPal. That's it.
If you request it on day 46, you're HOSED.
Furthermore, PayPal, for all their blind idiocy, does not automatically assume the complaintant is telling the truth... been there, done that.
They ask BOTH SIDES for proof of their arguement and decide based on that.
I have seen these complaints go in favor of the person WHO RECEIVED the funds FAR MORE often than those who sent them.
I stick with my original suggestions.
