If that buyer is also a seller, you should do the same crap to him.

Yep….buy something from him…..when it arrives…..say the box only had shipping materials. No item…. Sometimes fire with fire is the only thing that works….
 
I've also had a bad eBay experience and I've never sold anything again on there. I use free listing sites and it's local pickup only, no shipping.

Sellers really have no protection with eBay. Though I used that to my advantage when I paid for a used 12" PowerBook and the thing was in such a bad state the screen would barely stay up on its own. Seller refused a refund, and said I had damaged it. However, I didn't even need to escalate with eBay because the seller quickly refunded me when I pointed out he was using the same photos for all the 12" PowerBooks he was selling.
