Community Ebay Blocked Bidder File - Shared
Datentype
Posts: 1,677 ✭✭✭
Who is interested in putting together a community file to be used for blocking bidders on Ebay that each of us have personally had bad experiences with? Now that we can't leave negative feedback as sellers we are open to all kinds of people to create problems for us. I have a blocked bidder list i would love to share. Anyone else?

You wouldn't say that if you were the one in the ambulance...
And no, I can't think of any litigation issues but this is America...
There are people that I will NOT sell to on ebay (or the BST) but that many of you wouldn't have a problem with at all. They would likely pay quickly and give + feedback just as quickly.
It wouldn't be fair to give you my list and have you (generic/plural "you") block them based on my personal preferences.
By the same token, you likely have people that I would have no problems selling to.
Now, if someone had a list of known "bad" ebayers, that is different. Many cases are different though.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
A "public list" would likely work its way toward problems.
Sellers can refuse to sell to anybody for any LEGAL reason;
or, for NO reason at all.
Sellers cannot refuse to sell to folks for illegal reasons; race,
sex, religion, other protected class.
Within a few weeks, categorized-lists of "bad-EBAYers" will
be commercially available. The use of this type of list bears
no legal risk for the user.
Keep in mind, there are ONLY 5,000 slots in the new BBLs.
Those slots can fill-up pretty quickly.

If you are going to put something like this together you need a general rule to follow, in any case I would suggest a bad bidder with a score less than say 91% feedback.
Oh wait buyers cant get negative feedback anymore?
How would you know if a buyer was actually a bad bidder?
Everyone would open a separate buy account, so you would never know if he had good feed back.
Just block all buyers that don't have any sales, oh wait that wouldn't work either..
what is the percentage of bad ebay buyers to good ones, like .02%?
I have found power in the mysteries of thought.
It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.
Our virtues, and our failings are inseparable, like force, and matter. When they separate, man is no more.

I would only suggest listing names that have a story to go with it so we can determine if we want that person blocked or not. Most of the threads titled block this bidder have stories, some are cheasy and probably not worth blocking and some are definitely worth blocking.
If it is just a list of names I don't think that would work too well.

Agree. Otherwise, a bad seller could add a buyer that gave him a well deserved neg.

However, I think the lists should be PM'd to each other and not posted. I just get the feeling there may be some legal ramifications from posting them publicly. 99% of the rest of you must feel the same way since only one person posted their list.
Also, as was said, just because I had a problem with a bidder, doesn't mean everyone would have a problem.

experience as a seller. It was with boozeman2 He hasn't left me a neg yet but he will. My first.
He wanted to renegotiate the price after I sent the items. Followed by feedback extortion because
he wanted money back not a refund. Well I'll take a neg because I did nothing wrong.
