Alibaba is a reputable company, and in fact owns several US companies.

And eBay sale goes by eBay rules - not exactly Paypal, although Paypal payment is required, I believe.. I do not know exactly what the rules are for sales from China (but the buyer can find out before purchasing).

On a US-US sale, the rule is (approx.) if the buyer doesn't get what was described, eBay will make sure the buyer gets their money back, including one-way shipment. [Lots of details, but that's the guts of it].

And that has nothing to do with when Paypal pays the seller.
