+1, sometimes the frets aren't non-level enough to buzz, but just enough to rob all the energy from the strings.
Bottom line is that while we all try to spot issues like this, sometimes an instrument needs a jolly good playing before they turn up. Don't suffer in silence, take it back and explain - or better - demonstrate - the issue, and if your luthier is any good they'll put it right for you.
Or.... if the action is super-duper low on the e, you could just raise the action on the treble side a touch.
Or.... if the temperature and humidity varies a lot between your place and your luthier's - as in one of you lives up a mountain or something
- then that might have thrown things out if they were too close to the edge to begin with. Again, sometimes no way to tell when you're too close to the edge till you fall over it
