I don't believe looking for legal action for a $5 purchase makes any sense.
The point is, the seller is acting like a child.  Just because he did not like
the posted feedback doesn't mean he shouldn't sell to that customer.  How many
times have you been angry at a restaurant or retail store?  Did they block the
doors and not let you in because you got in one of their employee's faces?  I
think not.  The seller should have completed the sale, but ask the buyer not
to post a comment, if he has an issue, until after they have discussed it.  It
is one thing to say you will not sell to a person with negative feedback.

I also feel this IS the place to talk about such things since there is not a
bulletin board on BrickBay.  I had a similar issue on BrickBay.  I bought some
used sets.  The person washed the pieces to try and 'clean' them up and then
stuck them into PLASTIC bags, wet.  By the time they came through the mail,
they stunk of mildew and the sails (2 sets were ships) had green mold growing
on them.  I notified the seller of this issue, not requesting a refund, but to
inform him that in the future, not to do that to other buyers.  I was also
missing a few pieces.  I emailed him 2 more times and the person never
responded to my emails.  I posted a positive feedback, but with a clause.

I am not going to spend any time checking out the legalize of Brickbay's Terms and Conditions for uses their site. A lawyer can do that if they wish. This is turning into a "lose lose" situation. Some earlier dialogue may have helped. Alfred loses (...) (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
