What sucks though is I can't even leave him negative feedback anymore to warn people. Ebay doesn't seem to care about sellers anymore. They seem content to keep bidders happy. We can't leave negative feedback as a seller but I think they can leave us negative feedback as a buyer.

I guess you could say Amazon, but that's not really a good place to sell used stuff, and Amazon takes a bigger cut of the sales than even the eBay/Paypal combo. Your only other options after that are maybe Craigslist....or having a garage sale.
Years ago, eBay was more in favor of the sellers, and a lot of buyers complained. eBay slowly changed their rules, policies, and regulations so that it eventually balanced out a lot more and was more fair for both parties.
The reason they don't allow negative feedback to be given by sellers is, IIRC, due to some real fraudulent abuse by sellers that was fairly common: ie, you would buy something, pay for it, have it be a complete misrepresentation and then the seller would threaten retaliatory feedback.
No-pays are a hassle, and you can get your fees back. All you lose is your time, not the item. The scenario I described was far, far worse and threatened to destroy confidence in online auctions.
