Can buyers leave Negatives without paying for item?

I have a guy that wants to back out of a sale on Ebay.

I had 3 refractors without the peels that the guy bid on and won. 11 days after the end of the auction, he asks if the refractors have peels and if not wants to cancel the transaction.

Here is my response to him:

Matt,

The refractors do not have the peel, as is represented by the picture.

If you were concerned about the peel being on the card, you should have asked the question regarding the peel prior to your bid.

That being said, I will not back out of the transaction. It has been 11 days since the auction ended, which I feel is more than ample time to address your concerns over items you agreed to purchase on December 14th.

Please let me know your intentions of paying or not so I can request a refund of my listing fees.

Thank you.

I sent this on the 25th. Yesterday I started the NPB process.

Today, I got this response:

I say you, if the cards are incomplete stop the deal , if you retire the litige I give you negative feedback... you can feel the same

Which I translate (he is French), to "Either stop the non paying bidder claim and cancel the transaction, or I will leave you a negative."

For the principle, I want my FVFs back. Since he didn't pay, can he drop a neg on me if I pursue the fees?

Sorry for the rant, just a little frustrated.

Don't worry about the Neg if you do a non-payment dispute and you'll win of course, won't Ebay remove
the Neg if in fact he can leave one. I think he can leave it even though you started the process, but again
I think eBay will remove it though.
