I'm in an eBay pickle...

[mintacular]

First off, reader beware, this is another one of those annoying eBay transaction disputes Anyway, buyer requests I drop my BIN price $10 "offline". I say that I can drop $7 but would prefer to sell on eBay than do it offline and violate policy.

He responds its not against policy, as buyer could come into his store and he could end auction. I respond that is a different situation as he found me through eBay and eBay could become a free classified section for sellers, etc. All of this done on my part is totally respectful with no sarcasm, etc. He then pays for item and in notes section "refund difference". He never responds to my logical response of how doing an "offline" deal does violate eBay rules.

In all of this he is very hostile, example at one point says "I can prove it" and goes on with his storefront example. According to toohaus.org he gave/received several negs and clearly is an irate buyer/seller. Should I try to cancel this transaction? If I do, could I receive a negative? Or, should I just go through with the transaction and hope our email exchange doesn't impact his fbk given?

I have 100% postiive and really don't want a neg.

BTW_I don't care about the $, he is getting a more than fair deal so if i don't sell it to him it will sell at that price (or above).
