Will I get a refund?

[DumbledoresArmy]

I bought & paid for straight away x2 items (Xmas pressies for DC). The price was great for the items.

Anyway the items never arrived. Buyer didn’t mark them as dispatched. I messaged the seller. Eventually she agreed to refund me.
She initiated my refund, which could be seen as ‘processing’ in my PayPal account. She closed the sale & put due to issue with buyer, not true!
The refund got cancelled in PayPal.
I’ve had no email replies now from seller.
I’ve opened a case with eBay.

Will I most likely get my money back?

Yes, you should. I've always been able to get money back as a buyer, eventually

Have you contacted PayPal? They should help you sort it out.

I’ve not contacted PayPal yet. Just raised a case with eBay.

I would have thought so, Ebay usually lean towards the buyer. I do think buying on selling on there isn't what it used to be though, far too much dishonesty on both sides now makes it too much hassle

Yes you will get a refund, no need to worry. After 8 days you can "ask eBay to step in and help" with your case, so do that, and you should get your refund shortly after that.
