Contest Payment Dispute

This method is used if the seller wishes to contest a payment dispute initiated by the buyer. The unique identifier of the payment dispute is passed in as a path parameter, and unique identifiers for payment disputes can be retrieved with the getPaymentDisputeSummaries method. Note: Before contesting a payment dispute, the seller must upload all evidence files using the addEvidence and updateEvidence methods. Once the seller has officially contested the dispute (using contestPaymentDispute), the addEvidence and updateEvidence methods can no longer be used. In the evidenceRequests array of the getPaymentDispute response, eBay prompts the seller with the type of evidence file(s) that will be needed to contest the payment dispute. If a seller decides to contest a payment dispute, that seller should be prepared to provide evidential documents such as proof of delivery, proof of authentication, or other documents. The type of evidential documents that the seller will provide will depend on why the buyer initiated the payment dispute. The revision field in the request payload is required, and the returnAddress field should be supplied if the seller is expecting the buyer to return the item. See the Request Payload section for more information on theste fields.
