Negative Feedback Advice

Looking for a bit of advice as to what to leave as a negative feedback (can't think straight as I am severely P***'ed off !!!)
Long story short bought something didnt turn up rude horrible buyer called me a liar, said I was harrassing them etc along with many other things and was very nasty/unpleasant throughout the whole thing
Ive got my refund after 3 weeks from purchase (is this long ?) but I've decided I am leaving a negative feedback however I want it to stick and ebay not to have any grounds to remove it so what would you all suggest ?
Thanks in advance for any help

try being honest about the transaction.You got to get through what you've got to go through to get what you want but you got to know what you want to get through what you got to go through.0

Feedback is to warn others so your feedback wants to ring huge alarm bells for future potential bidders.
something like 'difficult transaction- un co operative seller' or similar . I'm terrible at wording things so maybe wait for someone else- I think pinkshoes does some good feedback suggestions.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

If you think negative feedback is really going to benefit people then you need to write about how the transaction went.
Failing that, if you are worried about the negative being removed, check the neutral feedback. I know when I buy something from a seller I still check neutral feedback0 -
Negative: 'Seller uncooperative, rude and aggressive when item failed to show'.
Don't mention the dispute (grounds for removal, oddly enough), don't call anyone any names (makes you look silly and possibly would be grounds for removal) and don't use loads of !!!!s or 'avoid', 'beware' etc.
Leave it for a few days and then do it. Last time I negged, on Playtrade, I mentioned that I was 'not impressed'."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4

I'd just put "item never arrived. Seller very rude and aggressive".
Probably best to keep it very simple with this one!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0
