The Australian division of eBay subsidiary PayPal has said it will reimburse customers left out of pocket by the collapse of local eBay seller EBS International.

A PayPal spokesperson estimated the number of customers to be around 2,500, but couldn’t name a dollar figure.

“Given the unique nature of this, and the size … we’re looking after our customers,” the spokesperson said.

There wouldn’t be a limit on the amount of money which the company would pay out, they continued, but added that the criteria for refund still needed to be worked out. “We don’t know if everybody is due for a refund.”
