How do you block seller listings on Ebay searches?


Hi all,

Anyone here know how to block seeing a specific sellers listings on Ebay? Just tired of doing searches that pull up circus-style multiple listings by the same coin seller. Never bought from this seller, just sick of seeing all the "hype", and volume of their listed items. Just want to block seeing their specific listings. Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

    That's a good question... I'd like to know myself also. Not sure that you can block sellers....

  • If you don't mind me asking which seller?

  • Thanks Broadstruck!

    Your thread is very helpful, and suprise, it's to block the same exact seller that you mentioned in it. No, I don't have anything personally against this seller, never bought anything from them, and their feedback rating is excellent. I'm just tired of seeing their same listings over-and-over again when I do my Ebay searches. Basically, I just want to clean up my searches, and thus same some time.

    Thanks again

    Using the procedure mentioned in that earlier thread, i.e.:
    1. Advanced search
    2. Copy and paste list of names of sellers I don't want to see
    3. Click search
    4. Browse Happily!

    I don't see any option to block specific sellers listings? Where is that option? image

    Have to do it in advanced search options, exclude sellers "xxx, yyy, etc"

    Ok, thanks Pokermandude. I found it under "Advanced search>sellers>only show items from>include (then click on drop-down menu) >exclude".

    *But is there any way to always have a seller's listings automatically blocked from your searches, without having to go advanced and type in his user name every time you do a search, and also to have their listings continually blocked from your "saved searches" results that eBay emails to you every day?*

    Not that I know of. You'll probably have to edit each saved search to include the list of excluded sellers.

    That's what I figured. Oh well.

    Do your search with your excluded sellers then bookmark the first page of the search results. The next time you open that bookmark you will have your search with the excluded sellers. I imagine this also works with saving your searches after you do a search with excluded sellers. But I save bookmarks on a bookmark organizing software.

    But you have to bookmark, or save, each search (with the excluded sellers). There doesn't seem to be a feature where you can exclude a seller from all subsequent searches.
    I collect history in the form of coins.
