Item Shows Delivered - Buyer says they didn't get it

So I wanted to ask peoples opinions on what to do in this situation (I know what I will probably do) and I thought it might have some good info for everyone anyway. Couple of weeks ago I sold a minifigure (10$). The buyer opened up a "haven't received item case" today. They said they know the item shows delivered but they never got it. They also said there was something else they were waiting for that shows delivered that day and they never got it either. They mentioned that "they know sometimes the post office will show delivered when it is at the post office" but that it never made it to their actual residence. So I said that its sounds like either the post office delivered and someone took it or that they made it show delivered but it got delivered to the wrong address or something (in short) and that they should contact the local post office to find out about it and see if the postman remembers it, etc. So final deal - its a 10$ figure which I could just reship as a courtesy. I am leaning towards that provided USPS does nothing (which they wont because they are worthless). Real question is Should I? Is it worth it as it could just be a buyer trying to get something free (doubt it)? Worth it to not deal with the issue anymore? I assume Ebay would side with me on this, right?
