Beware of this buyer: REMOVED as he bids on your item multiple times and as soon as he has driven up the selling price and wins - he sends a message saying that he won’t pay for the Item as he “can’t affairs it - as r is too expensive and out of my budget!” There is no option of negative feedback for sellers to leace about buyers - however buyers can leave negative feedback about the seller!! Then when you sell and an buyer pays you have to wait 22 days to get the money - but are expected to post without receiving the funds! Thanks for only looking after buyers EBay!!

1. You cannot name buyers on the boards.
2. If the buyer is a serial non payer for the purpose of leaving negative feedback you can report the buyer
3. Lodge non Paying Bidder disputes, you'll get your fees back and any negs will be removed.

Funds will be released about 3 days after you provide tracking showing confirmed delivery.
Have you condsidered using the tools eBay provides?
The Unpaid Item Dispute & the Blocked Bidder List for example.
The feedback you left for a non payer indicates that you found the experience a positive one.

Oh, juliette8844, you have made a bit of a muck of it, haven't you?
However...
Above all, face eBay selling calmly and professionally. Things WILL go wrong occasionally, and you need to have a carefully thought out strategy in place for the various situations you encounter. Reacting emotionally and going against eBay's policies isn't going to help you; you need to find ways to make the policies work for you (or at least, not work so much against you that you become frustrated).

Your bidder sounds like a serial nuisance. Very annoying.
Putting a warning here or anywhere else won't do much to help other sellers but you can help yourself, by doing as countessa suggested.
First set up your blocks so buyers with a couple of strikes against them can't bid on your items.
Make sure you put this particular bidder in your blocked list too.
And make absolutely sure you don't just cancel the sale, that instead, you put in an unpaid item claim for every unpaid item. That will give your bidder some strikes. That will be the greatest help you can give other sellers, plus it ensures you'll at least get your selling fees back off ebay.
Giving a strike to a non paying buyer is the best way for you to get some revenge because there will be quite a few sellers out there with blocks on people with strikes and when your nuisance bidder tries to buy from them, they'll get a message to say they can't buy. That will put a spoke in their wheel. I know you won't be able to see it when it happens but believe me, it will upset that bidder a lot more than your effort giving positive feedback & a bad comment. All you did was push up their score, make them look better. Hit them where it hurts with a non paying bidder strike.
