I've always been hesitant to give negatives as a buyer simply because I sell quite a bit and realize sometimes mistakes can be made every once in awhile.
At the same time, as a seller I try to rectify all problems that might arise if possible and get a little annoyed when other sellers don't do the same. I'll also give buyers a lot of leeway as far as payment terms and how long some of them take to actually pay. I guess, I'm kind of wishy washy and give most people the benefit of the doubt on both sides, sometimes to my own detriment.
I guess you do what you think is best given the circumstance. Hopefully, you've given the seller enough time to respond to your complaints.
There's always the DSR's if you're not comfortable giving a negative also.

I have to agree a negative is a last resort.... but really, 3 emails should be enough for at least a response....You also might make sure (by more listings or seeing more of what they are doing on ebay) that they aren't on vacation or something....But if they are currently selling and don't respond back then I wouldn't have a big problem with the negative after you have tried rectifying the way you are. Maybe even getting their contact info, thru ebay, and giving them a call wouldn't be a bad thing. I really do hate giving negs...but every now and then they can be warranted. Let us know how it turns out.
