Ebay Dilemma on item sold

Sold a saddle to a "nice" individual and I am about to ship it but then I see a message: "I should have purchased the brand new one for $20 less. Took you two days to ship and I have an expected arrival date of 11/15. You want positive feedback? Then...

I sell a controversial service; how can I safeguard against malicious buyers?
