    Actually, this can bite both ways. I, as an eBay buyer, left mixed
    feedback for a seller who shipped promptly and well, but shipped a
    clay piece with a slight chip, although the auction clearly stated
    the piece was in mint condition (which had surprised me, as clay is
    so easily chipped). I decided to keep it, despite the incorrect
    auction listing, but felt that I should note in my feedback that it
    was not as described, and that I did keep the item. 

    Seller freaked out and left me negative feedback purely because I
    was honest in my feedback for them. 

    So I have real issues with the whole feedback situation, when it is
    used as an attack on someone that they really can't respond to.
    Doesn't matter who leaves first feedback, if the other party is a
    jerk they will attack if they don't like your feedback, regardless of
    reality.
