Why did the OP get a negative trust from this? I don't see anything that necessarily made me think that he was trying the send-first PayPal scam.

Tomatocage is one of the users on what's called the Default Trust where they arbitrarily give out negative feedback, in the past he and Quickseller would also attach "use escrow" and then offer themselves up as the escrow agent without revealing that they are both the buyer and the escrow.

Tomatocage today has worded his negative feedback very carefully to imply the OP is trying something on (ie PayPal scam) without using the term "use escrow" no doubt another newbie will come on and suggest escrow and months later we'll find out that it was another Alt of Tomatocage.

Since Quickseller was outted as an escrow scammer persons on the DT and others have posted advice in the form of replies to the OP's instead of arbitrarily giving the OP negative feedback / trust without a chance to respond (ie using terms "I will remove if they ...")

You can add Tomatocage to you list of untrustworthy in the trust --> Trust Settings --> then put ~Tomatocage in your Trust list (as untrustworthy by adding the tilda "~" before his name..

Quoted for preservation, and trust rating has been removed. I'll revisit the matter later, if needed.

Yep... and here you are again handing out negative trust / feedback and "suggesting" the user uses escrow - which you have admitted to self escrowing previously.
