New reason for giving bad feedback?

I don't orinarilly (define ordinarilly) air my gripes, but, seeing the beast Leon has become attacking gentle Michael without provocation, I figured here's my opening.

I sold via eBay a man an ordinary item for an ordinary $11. He paid promptly and I sent the object. He received it and thanked me for the product and for the extra careful packaging (not thinking I had sent it in priority mail envelope when I didn't have to). At the end of the week, I went to eBay to post feedback. I gave him a postive and left an admitedly generic quote on the order of 'good deal' or 'worthile deal.'

The next morning (educated judgement, having gotten up just after noon) he sent an livid and lengthy email, stating that he was going to give me negative feedback (idle threat?, as I haven't received it yet) because my quote was not good enough.
