Block Bidder - A useless Feature on eBay. Sellers not Proctected AT ALL.

[real.phoenix]

Friends,

Recently I found one major loop-hole in the eBay system and none of the people at eBay are able to fix it or reply to me.

eBay has provided a "Blocked Bidder" facility to a seller. But this is of no use to any seller. When you block a bidder because of their harassment to you, then the same bidder can register another account and place orders.

Recently, I blocked a bidder because he used to demand huge discount after purchasing products from me. He used to ask such discounts that were impossible to give (30% to 40%). He also used to send me very aggressive emails due to which I added this buyer in my Blocked Bidder's list. Now the same buyer has registered another account and purchased goods worth USD 360.00 and they have continued the same demands in the new account also.

When I contacted eBay about this, they said they cannot help me. This means sellers are not at all protected on eBay.

I respect buyers a lot and it is because of them that I earn money and sustain my family and self. I have found 99% of buyers to be very good and understanding. But the remaining 1% are horrible. However, eBay's policies are so much unsupportive to the sellers that these 1% buyers are enough to give sellers sleepless nights. These 1% buyers are responsible for all the problems that sellers face but eBay doesn't do anything to these people. What is the use of BLOCKED BIDDER feature if you can't block all accounts of one buyer?

Lastly, I am sure, no one from eBay Pinks will even dare to address this concern...

Sellers on eBay are left at the mercy of the tyrant buyers.

Regards,
Mustufa

Hi,
write TNS and complain under malicious and unwanted buying from buyer and they will remove buyer.

Tell them this buyer is unwanted and he/she knew it and they are buying product from you under different ID to harm your business and extort money from you in lieu of discount.

hi,

donot waste your time in complaining anywhere and writing mails to ebay support team in hope of getting a positive response.

No one will help you

i too have gone thru the same trouble wasted my precious time in collecting proofs and writing mails
and finally the response i received was
copy pasted matter that showed support team did not even read my email carefully :( "Lord, I have done many things wrong. I am guilty, but to show your goodness, forgive me for everything I did. When people choose to follow the Lord, he shows them the best way to live.”

@Mustufa Jee, I once talked about this with some IT guys who have a lot of experiance in building Such web platforms. As I once before pointed out in one discussion, multiple ids of a buyer can be linked with many things but what if the buyer goes to cafe and purchase from his friends id by paying from some different paypal account(as u r in .com).

So it is impossible to link this type of transactions on eBay as it is a big and open market place. the point is having some strict policies where such buyers can be toughly handled by ebay.

I know, nothing will happen. eBay can punish good sellers but cannot eliminate bad buyers. I lost my Top Rated Seller status because of him. Because every time he leaves a feedback, my DSR goes down and my seller dashboard reflects a low DSR. He keeps excellent communication through eBay but sends very demanding emails through yahoo so that eBay can never catch him.

Hi,
A britt is after me. I stopped listing matchbox labels entirely due to this fellow.
Who blocks whom!!
He blocked me in reality.
Jai Ho DSR.
But I must say that German people are the best possible gentlemen (and gentle ladies) in the universe. I fail to understand why they are so generous and lavish. God bless Germany.
Thanx,
Truly,
