Is this an eBay scam?

Hopefully now you have mentioned the police the issue will resolve itself. I had something similar, as soon as I mentioned the police lo and behold it turned out that the buyers wife had signed for the phone, put it in a drawer and forgotten to tell her husband.

An update:
After a month now since the sale, eBay has finally decided in my favour (Hazzar!)
Oddly enough though, they didnt ask for proof of posting, anything like that, they just assumed he was a scammer based on the amount of cases he opens as a buyer.
Well, this whole episode has put me right off ebay like, as I definitely believe if he'd not opened so many cases they would have just sided with him and f*cked me off.
... fair play to Mr Sohail like, he didnt back down until the very end. Tosser.

Sold a phone on eBay, buyer paid via PayPal at the end of the auction.
Phone was sent out Royal Mail Special Delivery (insured upto £500) inwhich the buyer has told me he has received the package but the phone wasnt in the parcel. The phone was definitely in the parcel.
If he makes a claim against PayPal where will I stand?

TX.
Edit - what about the weight of the package? It would be light = cheap to post if empty ...
2nd edit - oops, case closed
