I received a message from a private person on eBay classifieds about an application I made. I was looking for a laptop. The person wrote me via WhatsApp that they would have to offer a device that suits my request. Since this did not fit my price expectations, I asked for safety's sake, how much they would want to have. So it was agreed on a price (680 euro). In the further course of the conversation was then settled that I pay via PayPal (she commented on this, that would take longer to the money for them would be available but that would be okay for them) and the person sends the laptop with a parcel service to me, So I told her the shipping address and transferred the sum, she confirmed me promptly that the money was received. Then she suddenly said that the money on her PayPal had not yet been released and she needed it urgently on the evening of the same day. Although I pointed out to her several times that she only had to send the package and give the shipment number and the money would be released the next day, she talked herself crazy, every few minutes came another excuse (because of them has a better Get a quote, then it was said that I should pick up the laptop today and pay cash, I should pay now via bank transfer and they reserve the laptop until receipt of payment, etc.), and without my consent, they initiated the repayment of my payment at PayPal. But this takes a week, in which I have the money not available and even if I wanted, you could not cash or send via bank transfer. I can't pick up. I pointed out several times that a sales contract has already been concluded and she can't withdraw from this. But she insists on it, and also the admonitory words, I would turn my lawyer, caused no insight. I think it's my own fault that I do not respond to their proposed solutions.
While researching on Google, I found out that I could actually take action against a lawyer she was supposed to pay for, and then pay me to replace the difference cost with an equivalent used laptop. Is this correct?
Unfortunately, I have no legal expenses insurance and am a student, so I do not actually have the money for a lawyer, if there's a risk that I will stay on the costs.
Maybe someone can bring light into the darkness.
You have already researched correctly, only it is questionable, if you still do not sit on your (to be presented by you) costs, because the seller does not want to pay (can), an enforceable title also has its costs, so it is to be weighed whether you want to do it to yourself.
And the admonitory words
I would turn my lawyer on, caused no insight…
And something like that writes a student?
Then you should now go to a lawyer, if you want to achieve something.
Then you are glad that you got your money back. What is the use of the most beautiful purchase contract, if you end up without goods and money.

is displayed on ebay classified ads not without reason. Next, buy things that are in your environment and can be picked up by you, checked and paid in cash.

The danger always exists. You do not have any data from your contract partner. On ebay classifieds, users can sign up anonymously.
Although I pointed out to her several times that she only had to send the package and give the shipment number and the money would be released the next day,
That belongs in the field of fairy tales. You will notice that, if Paypal does not release the money for you immediately.
Rejoice that you get your money and you're done.
