Very different to usual scams but seemingly able to make use of a loophole
Funny you say about his old account kirsty and matt although I don't know how you found that info, his name is Mathew and it Is because of his flawless feedback I took a chance on the unconfirmed/unusual payments."
Particularly infuriating as responding with all pertinent info to 9 separate disputes was a right palava of multiple browsers and copy and paste taking about half hour and n to be accused of sending a faulty itm was the cherry on a very unsavoury cake.

Exactly - if you (or paypal) was not able to verify the payment it makes no sense you should have shipped the item.

So, you let him pressure you into doing the wrong thing
twice?
First by devoiding the ebay/paypal system, designed to protect the buyer and the seller - and then again by sending the item the moment the funds started to appear in your account?
How long did it take for the bells to start clanging and the lights to start going off in your head?
Seriously - you should have no shame or feeling of regret in outing this dude publicly!
