Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with a neg. feedback like this? This one feeback has bsically killed my store. Do I just have to wait it out? Even if I offered to give it back now, the damage is done.

There is not enough stuff to buy right now. List more products, start a few auctions. You will make sales and that neg will be buried in a short time.
There will always be idiots shopping from us. Most people are decent though, and they will see through this. Look at the feedback he left for others! He is a jerk. Don't worry about it.

As a note, you can still recover from the negative if you satisfy whatever he wants and get him to do a mutual withdrawal. Having said this tho, depending on how mad he is it might go for naught, it you fix it and he doesn't do the withdrawal. Given he has other negs, it isn't as likely to work out.
I have recovered from a couple negatives by leaving the buyer a negative for not emailing or working with me to resolve issues they reported, then responding to them politely via email, and after discussing what they want fixed, fixing the thing they had issue with (which I would have done if they'd emailed me in the first place). Some folks don't expect sellers to work with them and neg off the bat without any communication. Usually if you're polite and offer to work with them they will come around.
Anyway in the worst case, looks like you're risking well under $50 to try to fix it up.

I'll definately look into beefing up my inventory. I think the reason all items weren't displaying was an ebay.ca/ebay.com thing. I'm registered on Ebay.ca but most of my items are only sold wihtnin the US. You are probably just seeing the ones currently available to Canada.
I guess it is all a learning experience in dealing with people. And ou are correct, most are great to deal with

Why should the buyer pay shipping? Whether the fault lay with poor handling by the PO or your packing, it certainly was not the buyer's fault.

If a multi billion $ company doesn't reimburse it, I cannot afford to.
I state my policies in every listing. If a buyer doesn't like my terms, they shouldn't buy the item.

By the way - You might want to take your caps lock off - your post and item description are hard to read. All capitals are considered to be 'yelling'.

I believe that buyers have to chose method of shipping. And if they don't care about insurance it is buyers problem. Seller should just offer all services and good packing. But if somebody start to use you parcel like soccer ball it is not my problem. It is post office problem and buyers to report damage, register parcel that it is damaged.

I would hope that with the product that you sell you would insure your shipments on your own. Besides being very breakable you also write I give 100% guarantee you will receive as shown and described. With a statement like that in your listings I would say that you're taking responsibility that your customers will receive their item unbroken. If I were you I wouldn't leave it up to the buyer to purchase extra insurance. Once you give a guarantee, it falls on your shoulders.

Do you know alero0I never had problem with extra insurance. Usually customers ask me about it. But I lost one case with paypal when I received broken figurine and can't prove that it is broken because I didn't report that box was damage. Seller promise return money if I return figurine but not for shipping cost. To ship it both ways to UK cost about 40 GBP=$85can. Price for figurine was just $65can. I just keep this figurine but learn my lesson.
