PayPal disputes can honestly be hit-or-miss depending on the evidence and how quickly the claim gets escalated. Hopefully you kept screenshots, receipts, tracking details, and all communication with the seller because that usually makes a huge differrence.
Situations like this are stressful financially, which is probably why more people are searching for stable Academic Jobs and University Jobs with better long-term security and benefits.
I’ve browsed
Academic Jobs before for acadmic careers, lecturer roles, research openings, and university staff positions worldwide. There are actually more opportunites globally than most people expect.
Hope the refund process works out properly for you.
