Why did ebay remove negative feedback I left for seller, but didn't even tell me they did this??!

Since ebay is damn impossible to get answers these days - sometimes I just want to close my account & tell ebay to get stuffed forever - please community tell me why negative feedback I left for a seller has been removed & ebay being the jerk they are, didn't even tell me they removed it!  

Since you can't trust ebay ratings and feedback anymore, I also left a negative review of the company on Google, to warn prospective buyers.  I think it sucks that ebay is so dishonest that they can't let negative feedback be left for a seller and their sneaky, not telling the buyer they have removed it.  

BTW I didn't break ebay policy, I bought a stuffed toy from a company which advertised it as 8 inches in size but it was actually 6.5 inches when it arrived.  When I contacted the seller about it, they had a bad attitude saying all the other feedback they receive is positive (mind you, they sell a range of items and all the feedback is listed as private, so nobody can see what item was purchased).  Anyway, in my neg feedback I said exactly this (the problem with the size) and that they had a bad attitude on response.  That's it.

Ebay don't have to inform you as to why they Remove Negative Feedback.
