On ebay like in life, you will be exposed to complete morons from time to time. Unfortunately, in the ebay world sometimes it is sooner rather then later. Don't let this one bad experience deter you as it is representative of the vast minority of ebay customers. If this was such a frequent occurrence, ebay would not be a viable source of business.
When you are exposed to a moron, you have to mitigate your aggravation and damage to your ebay reputation by any means necessary like how your friend conducted himself/herself. As for your loss, you just need to chalk it up as a cost of doing business and if you frequently sell on ebay this loss will be ending up being negligible.
