On choosing "Leave Feedback" I am not offered the opportunity to leave negative feedback as is usual. Only positive button offered .  I would like to be able to give negative feedback in this instance. (131107854816)

your only options are:

     - don't leave them any feedback (after all, feedback is voluntary and you do not have to leave any)

     - leave them a positive with a 'negative' tone comment (this is against the rules and will get

          you a policy violation if the buyer reports you)

     - stop selling and be a buyer only

     - stop using eBay if you do not like their rules.  They will not change the rule because you find it not satisfactory

You have never left a neg as a seller, so why do you now find the constraint unsatisfactory? Five+ years after it was implemented?
