    I see coinman2000 on there. Smart move👍

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    For future reference, if you don't save the link:

    1) On eBay, click "Help & Contact" at the bottom of any page.
    2) Type "block buyer" or "block bidder" in the search box.
    3) Click the "Blocking a buyer" link in the search results.
    4) Click the "Block bidders or buyers from your listings" link.

    As with all things eBay, it's far more complicated to navigate to than really necessary.

    I’ve never understood people who send rude messages insulting a listing and then make an offer. Does that actually work for them ever?

    I tell them I will change the listing price, then not change it.

    Yep, I like the idea of the low ballers constantly refreshing the page and seeing no results. But you have to block them so they can't get revenge.

    What if they have more than one eBay identity? :#

    Thanks CoinJunkie I took notes and will see if it works on laptop (wife’s). I mostly use my phone for eBay. Can this block bidder be referenced from phone app?

    They make it so hard for this one simple thing. Possibly by design - can see a couple of tekkys in conf room devising stuff. I had it bookmarked on another computer which is kaput, You think it wb off the selling list from my eBay.

    If you have a store there is a quick easy link to do this on your sellers page.
