Am I a POP TART?

Quick story - Got a question late last night from a zero feedback buyer that just joined ebay a few days ago. Basically he said the box I had listed didn't look right compared to a picture of a box he sent me. That is because they were two different products. I answered his question and then blocked him. As some of you know, I have had problems with newbie buyers not understanding the hobby, plus it looked like he didn't want the box based on his question.
He sent me another message asking why I blocked him because he wanted to buy the box. He blamed the question on a "friend". I haven't responded yet, should I unblock him and let him buy the box? The box is around $200.

Nope. Move on. You’re just looking for trouble selling it to him. I can see a NAD return in the future.

to him? yes.
should you care? not one fricking bit.
i wouldnt not unblock.
"i wouldnt not unblock."
Thank you Yogi Berra.
not never! 😉
I'd be curious to know what you were selling and what the ebayer sent a pic of.
It's always better to not sell something than to sell to a problem. If he is already questioning you what kind of a problem is he going to be once he has your stuff and wants your money too?
You're a complete a hole. Block him
Block em
If you have to ask yourself the question..........LOL

Don't use no double negatives. And always avoid cliches like the plague.
To answer the OP's question, yes we were all zero feedback at one point. But that doesn't mean it has to be you to take a chance on one. For any zero or close to it out there, prove yourself by buying/selling cheaper stuff...not much different from improving your credit score from scratch really.

I knew I could count on the wisdom of the board. That was probably an a-hole move on my part but I will be an a-hole who still owns his $200 box.
I will also admit that I block newbie buyers that ask if the all of the cards in the sealed box are GEM MINT or ones that question the grade of the card and then make a low ball offer. So I am a triple a-hole
Lol, just block. I learned the hard way. It saves Soo MUCH STRESS!!!! 👍 The internet can be Soo useful, but it can also pull your emotions down .... If you let it!!!! You did the right thing.
apparently you are, a whole, buncha things? 😉
I thought this Subject was about A holes? Pop tarts now?? Now that's something I've never put together yet in life. Pop tarts and A holes. It's a first for me.
POP TART is an edit I make when a word or two strays outside of what is commonly accepted around here. As a result, you will occasionally see POP TARTs around here in places other than your toaster. ;-)
I get it now 😜
More of a Toaster Strudel if you ask me. Block away.
I have not had a pop tart since college and have been gluten-free for nearly a decade yet this thread has me craving this.
this is so true. was my high school goto meal when running late or coming in late…
laughed pretty hard when it showed up in this episode:
Wow!
Congratulations; triple a is great but the next step up is the majors!!!
