Recieving damaged goods

[Alex-RS]

I ordered a headlight from a guy advertising spares on another forum, and he said it was all in good nick etc. Paid him £30 through paypal, and got the headlight through the post. When I recieved it, the bottom mount was snapped off and in the box seperately. I emailed him and he said he can give me details of the postage for me to chase up Royal Mail and persue a claim. I kindly replied saying it wasn't my responsibilty and that he hadn't packed the item sufficiently to protect it, and I requested a refund.
He hasn't replied to this yet(sent that on Friday)and I don't actually know whether I was right in what I was saying, I was just trying to make it easier on myself really.
Anyway, will I have to go to Royal Mail, or shall I claim through Paypal?

As I have found out to my disadvantage paypal will refund your cash without any questions.

I posted out something to a bloke in malta, he claimed it never arrived.

I had proof he had recieved it ( him boasting on a forum ) and proof of postage but paypal believed him and refunded him the full £75.

Claim through paypal.
