Can you block ebay sellers?

Boopotts

Is there any way a guy can block the auctions of certain sellers from appearing when he puts in a search. There are a couple clown who's auctions I'll never bid on, but I don't know it's them until I open the page.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Guy

Most sellers use the same template for all their auctions,
so see if you can find a distinctive phrase in the auctions of the guy you don't want.
Like "guaranteed to be truely mint" or "no bidders with zero feedbacks".

Then, say you're searching for 1965 Topps. Type into the search box :
1965 Topps -("guaranteed to be truely mint")

or to block auctions with either phrase type in :
1965 Topps -("guaranteed to be truely mint","no bidders with zero feedbacks")

and no auctions with those exact phrases in them will show up in your search results.

It is actually much easier.

Use:

http://pages.ebay.com/search/items/search_seller.html


At the bottom, check the "exclude" button. Works great to avoid t2inc and others.

sagard - Your method works for a general eBay seach,
but if you only want to seach within a subcategory like :

Home > All Categories > Sports Cards and Memorabilia > Cards > Football-NFL

and then only want to search for 1965 topps cards,
you can no longer use the exclude seller feature,
or at least I can't figure out how to.
