If, based on his eBay feedback and his reputation on net54, you feel in your gut that he actually put the card in the mail to you, I would say give him a $25 refund. However, you should have told him to send the card back insured. (He should have known to send it back insured without you having to tell him...) But, hindsight in 20/20. I would, however, feel better if he would present me with a receipt from the post office that indicates that he sent something to your zip code on the date that he said he did. (A sample P.O. receipt is below.) I always keep P.O. receipts for 6 or 9 months in the event that somebody questions whether or not I sent the card out. The P.O. receipt in and of itself is not proof that he actually sent you what he said he did, but it at least shows that he sent something to someone in your zipcode on that date. The P.O. receipt also indicates the name of the P. O. from which he sent the package, but I removed that from the P.O. receipt below.
