What kinda feedback should I leave for this ebay deal?

So I got this musiclander body in the big sale in December.  I thought about having Warmoth paint it, but I saw a guy on Ebay doing Nitro paint jobs for a cheaper price.  I messaged the guy, asked him if he could do white with a red stripe.  He said he could. So I bought the body, paid for the auction, and sent him the body when it came from Warmoth in the beginning for January.

In February, he sends me a message saying he can't do the stripe, because the "the radius and the curve" of  the body is too different from a Stratocaster body. I'm disappointed, and my BS meter starts going off, so I ask him to do a transparent finish instead, basically to make sure I get the exact body back.

It comes back last week, and it's a pretty decent job.  The cavities are white, so you can see where he tried to do the work as originally asked, and wasn't just trying to BS me.

How would you leave feedback on ebay, given that you can only leave one line of feedback.

Oh, and I think next time, if there is a next time, I won't try to go cheap on the paint job.
 
well i wouldnt givehim great feedback because he should have made sure he could do the job before he confirmed your request. but i wouldnt give him terrible feedback because it sounds like he attempted the job honestly
 
I'd leave neutral feedback. He did the job, but you didn't get what you wanted.

Sounds about right. He should have checked beforehand.

Plus anything less than positive is working against his positive feedback %, so you don't really need to go for the nut shot of negative. If its not positive, people will read it.
 
"You have no transactions for which you can leave Feedback." 

I guess you can't leave feedback months after the sale.  :\
 
who was the seller?  Just curious as I too had a body painted from a guy on ebay and it was worth about what I paid..  which means it kinda sucked.
