Please help me with this problem i'm having and tell me if I handled it the right way

I'm having a problem with another member on ebay.
please give me your input and tell me if i handled this correctly?

i have no idea if this person is a member here?

I had a watch for sale of mine on ebay. in my auction description I state if you are located outside of the USA, I may only except wire transfer as a form of payment depending on your location. i also ask that bidders contact me before bidding to appove them.

20 minutes before my auction ends, i get an email from someone who says "can i bid on your item?" i looked at his feedback, over a 100 feedback and all positive, i said "thanks for contacting me, yes you may bid.

after the auction ends, the buyer right away sends me a paypal payment. I sent him a message stating as he is all the way on the other side of the world in Australia, his paypal address is unconfirmed and as stated in my auction listing, i only ship to confirmed paypal address's only. i refunded his paypal payment in full. i then asked if he could please complete the payment via bank to bank wire transfer. He flipped out and starting threatoning me if i don't do what he says he's going to leave me the worst feedback ever to ruin my 100% postive score.

i sent the buyer another message and said please do not turn this transaction into a nightmare, just complete the payment and fallow the rules of my auction listing. i also told him he does not feel comfortable doing a wire, we can cancel the transaction so i can get a credit back from ebay for my fees. i sent him a request through ebay requesting to cancel the transaction because at this point, his rude and threatoning responses are making me uncomfortable to even continue this transaction.

well he denied the request to cancel the transaction and he said he was going to make this hard on me... in more or less words he was just threatoning me saying i have to do it his way or else.

i feel i gave him 2 great options. either he can complete payment the way i stated very clear in my auction, or we can cancel the transaction.

he really has it out for me.. now i have to wait for him to leave the negative so ebay can investigate and hopefully remove it once he leaves it. they said for me to wait till he leaves the feedback and then contact them back to open up an investigation. so i guess I will wait now.

how terrible. i don't sell watches, i only buy, but this watch I no longer need in my collection so i would like to sell it.

I hope some of the members tell me if i handled this correctly?

I feel like if people do not like the terms in my auction listing, then why bid and waste my time and try to ruin my feedback?
sometimes even if a person has all positive feedback, still doesn't mean thery cannot create problems for you.
