Reply to "Negative Seller Reaction"

First - Thanks to everyone that replied to my original message. I am overwhelmed by your respones and helpful suggestions.

Second the item in question was a collectable german pocket knife. I estimate it's maximum value at about $35.00 and with handling I ended up paying about $30.00. I did pay $1.00 more than the highest bidder just before closing. After the auction when I received the negative note I suggested to the seller that he post a note on future items: "Snipers are not welcome."
I also offered to let him cancel the sale with no hard feelings and I'd take my business elsewhere. (The item is not that hard to find!)He apologized and the transaction was copmleted.

I did not realize that the insta-mail would have a negative effect and I thought that AS deserves to get their message out, and I don't mind helping. Now I think I'll turn it off. Thanks again for pointing out the toggle to me.
