Target language: English

Seeing that you wanted to open the controversy, I follow what eBay tells me, I would have given €135 back to you, now I'm refunding €127, which are those that I took from you; I regret it, but you wanted it, let me know. Bye!
Remarks about the translation
"visto" is the past participle of "vedere", but a gerund is more likeable here;

Why "ciao" at the end?
Shouldn't it be : Bye...?

Also... capital letter for "ebay". It's probably a proper name.

Visto che = since, as...

Since you...

The translation is outstanding, although, I agree with Lilian, why ciao?, and I think to refund matches better with "rimborsare" than to return does.

"Refund" would be the most accurate translation, but as the text was written in a really colloquial manner I feel that "return" fits better. I would have used "give back", though.
Don't you agree?

The text is colloquial, yes, but "rimborsare" isn't really. "Tornare" would be a colloquial equivalent of "return"

I'm sorry, I hadn't paid attention to that "Ciao!" over there Well, I've tried to employ both your suggestions for "rimborsare" in the new edited translation; how do you find it now? As for "eBay", it's the site, Lilian.
