Leaving negative feedback on Ebay - Beyond Tiki

Why? I bought a $15 item and the shipping was not posted on the auction. They emailed a shipping fee of $16+. I asked why it was so much when the rate for 6 pounds (the item they said weighted 4-5, but actually ended up being less than 2) through USPS was $8 and through UPS the same, unless you went overnight. No response. I went ahead and paid and got the package. It was not well packed. Was in a reused box with little packaging material. That is, they did not buy a box and bubble wrap, etc. The shipping on the box was less than $6. I emailed again and asked for a reason for the shipping rate. No response. They had emailed me about my PayPal payment, so I know they are getting email. They just didn't reply. Should I feel bad? Should I have left negative feedback?
