Is it true that if you sell something on ebay, the buyer isnt happy with it yet the seller refuses to refund as no grounds to do so, can Ebay take money from your paypal account in favour of the buyer without your authorisation?

Do you mean cash on collection or cash on delivery?
I have no intention of travelling all over the country/world to deliver my goods and the only times I accept cash is when I sell cars, then I make sure the buyer comes to my bank to deposit the cash. I don't know if the money is fake or not.
I really can't see people travelling hundreds of miles for a £100 item.

I accept Cash on Collection if people come to my house to collect - but they give me the money before I give them the item.
If someone pays by cheque, I don't mail the item until the cheque's cleared through my bank.
I did have an oddity recently where someone paid through PayPal so I mailed the item, but then PayPal told me that the buyer's bank had rejected the transaction - fortunately, I always keep proof of posting, so PayPal made sure I wasn't out of pocket under seller guarantee.

oj, if you advertise something for sale the potential buyer has to contact you, usually by joining the site such as gumtree or ebay. Those details could be false.
And here's an example of the dangers of buying in person, cod

Another problem with cod is the possibility the item is stolen.

well, that's very true I suppose
Personally I wouldn't ever buy an expensive item form anywhere other than a shop, especially iphones, ipads etc. These are one of the biggest scams on eBay as you probably know
I'm still confused though, as to how, as a seller, CoC isn't the best way for a seller?
A buyer, probably not, but the seller? Always the way to go
But like I said there is no buyer protection for collection only goods anyway
