Just received an update... The dispute was found in my favour because I have provided all the required information... So glad with the outcome... Wanted to leave a feedback on the buyer's account but it says "Now the seller is inactive", guess ebay has closed their account.

I hope that ebay actually gets the money back from the scammer... Ebay shouldn't foot the bill for scammers, but anyway it's all sorted now, will be a lot more vigilant now. I do have high value items on ebay, so hopefully won't be seeing this again. 
Thank you again everyone for your support and advice, much appreciated 

Yes, I provided Proof of delivery, tracking number, Royal mail photo and conversation with the buyer through ebay messaging.... All this tracking information is already provided when I sell, but had to send it again. Fortunately I am not out of pocket. 

Great news 👍
hope the scammer  get what he deserve

Glad this worked out the right way.

It’s officially Coronation Christmas in May!  Received 4 different shipments today - 5£ Piedfort, 50p Piedfort, 2 oz silver, 1/4 oz gold, 1/40 oz gold, and a few sets.  Everything was in great shape, QC did an excellent job, could not be more pleased. (SOTD was last week - that headed straight to the safe)

@AR03 sorry to hear that. People suck. I'm always really nervous of selling stuff incase of getting shafted like this. Never happened to me but ive heard of it happening.
A lot of people only sell their PMs when they are desperate for cash, to then lose that cash that they depend on. Sickening.
hope you get it sorted in your favour, if not, might be worth trying to claim off royal mail and pit ebay and rm against each other until 1 folds. In reality i know its not that easy.
All the best

Good idea but from what I have seen scammers don’t use one account for long.

We should compile a hitlist thread where scammers ebay usernames can be posted and highlighted for future reference 

I like this idea, I don't sell on there often since joining TSF and never anything of real value but worth it for others

Hi, a buyer bought a gold one ounce last week, received it and then bought another one this week, which was received yesterday. Today they open a dispute saying bank doesn't recognise the transaction, hence the funds are on hold. Funds are about £4000. I have challenged it and sent Proof of delivery, but anyone had this experience before. Can I name the buyer here so others who sell on ebay can be cautious? 

I am assuming that when you sell on eBay and they tell you the item has been paid for then by using the eBay system to post / ship you cannot go wrong.
You select the method of shipping leaving the automated created address etc to eBay.
Using a tracked service - I assume Royal Mail Special Delivery for high value items, then as you have not entered an address or made any alterations you cannot possibly be held responsible, so eBay would provide seller protection in full. So I believe.

Thanks... Hopefully the ebay/bank takes my side... They even messaged few times regarding delivery etc, and now nothing. 
 
Buyer Name- Lily Awuku-Ampofo, London address

Hmm... Very interesting, never noticed this... I always send it to the address on the ebay's account. Just double checked and the buyers name says Lily Spence but the address has Lily Awuku-Ampofo. Even if I did see, I would have thought it's a name change etc, wouldn't have doubted it but definitely wouldn't have sent to a different address. Now I'm a bit scared, can't loose 4k cash and 4k worth of gold.
