All I have to say is that the seller is a retard, and this is even before considering that the neg feedback was 100% true.

The only way to win a case like that one is to be able to PROVE that what the customer said was totally false and defamatory. Then you can win.

Even THAT may not be enough. You'd also have to prove malicious intent AND quantifiable losses, as in if you sold 10,000 items and have 5 negs, you'd have to prove to the court how much exactly having another neg cost you in dollar amount. So you can even technically win the case and not win any financial compensation because you have no damages.

Not the first time this has happened.

eBayer sued for leaving negative feedback • The Register

Orange County man sued over negative eBay feedback | www.wftv.com

Just another reason to be stealth.
