I am quite new to ebay...
My first auction has just ended for an online code. i accidently sent the code to the last bidder before he completed checkout the item or sent the payment. It has been 2 days since the buyer did not respond to my PMs regarding payment and that I have emailed him/her the code.
Would I be protected against this from ebay? How long should I wait before I contact ebay about my situation if the buyer does not respond? The person has 151 feedback and 100%, so I do hope I am just overthinking it.
Thanks for the feedback!

Take this as an important lesson.
NEVER SEND ANYTHING UNTIL YOU RECEIVE PAYMENT.
In your case, the guy should pay up. I'm not sure how paypal would handle it. Normally, they're always on the buyer's side but in this case, only you are at a liability here.
Also, some buyers are either quite lazy/unavailable at compuer so spamming a few more ebay invoices never hurt anyone. Give him another day or two before opening up a paypal dispute.
