Default eBay buyer scam my money - eBay and PayPal won't refund





I meant eBay seller not buyer. I been sitting trying to get this solved for over 10 hours. Going Crazy!!!

I brought a pair of diamonds earrings on eBay (paid by PayPal using Bank of America and Chase) and it tested out to be fake. I contacted seller many, but no reply. I send item back, because seller say return accepted within 7 days, but no refund or reply. I provide eBay with the tracking number, but eBay told me in order for me to get my money back I should of include signature confirmation, but the address was a PO Box address, I assume that PO Box mean only the seller would be able to access the mail. eBay told me to contact USPS to see if they required seller to sign for the mail, when I did, the post office say the PO Box was closed last month. I contacted eBay again and they asked for the PO Box address and then told me that's not even the address the seller provided to eBay. I appealed for the dispute, but was rejected the refund. I contacted PayPal and they say because there's already a case for it on eBay there's nothing they can do. I contacted eBay again and they told me she can't force the seller to refund my money and I should try my best to get the seller to reply and that they will help me send email to the seller, but they can't do much if the seller does not reply. I told them, obviously, is a scam, why would the seller use an address not even on their eBay to ship the item, why wouldn't the seller respond, it been over 3 weeks and not a single reply, I doubt the seller will reply now and that eBay and PayPal should look into this more, but they say unless the seller repeat this again if not, they can't do much and can't prove she's a scam. I told eBay and PayPal I took picture of the package and it shown the PO Box with delivery confirmation send to me by the seller name and that's where I return the item too. I still have the original envelope send from the seller with picture taken, the receipt from USPS proving that I sent the item back to the address from the original envelope with the seller name on it. I have excellent feedback on eBay, but the seller has really bad feedback. I have my money hold before from PayPal after a buyer paid for an item, that's why I don't understand why PayPal can't hold the money from the seller and have her reply to the case. Besides saying that they will contact her by email, I asked if they can send her a letter to her address and call her and they say no. It doesn't make sense, a buyer just got scum by a dishonest seller and eBay and PayPal close the case in the seller's favor when seller's haven't respond since I paid for the item. Doesn't all these prove that the seller is wrong? I contacted both my banks to see if they can get my money back. I contacted USPS and told them I think the owner of the PO Box is a scam. I emailed the CEO of eBay and President of PayPal regarding this. Any idea what else I can do to get my money back? Thank You
