Hello @dineshraja

 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear a recent transaction hasn't gone quite as you've expected. As payments via Friends and Family do not have Purchase Protection, we never recommend sending them for a goods or service you've purchased. If you funded the payment via a debit / credit card or bank, I would recommend reaching out to them to see what kind of dispute options may be available. I would also recommend reaching out to eBay to see what kind of dispute or reporting options are available there. 

 

Best wishes on this and future transactions,
