Ebay query.

[windywillow]

Sorry, don't know which category to put this in. Can I refuse to sell something to an eBay bidder, if I haven't blocked them previously?

Thanks Snags. This particular eBayer is someone I should've put on my blocked list but didn't, as I didn't think they'd have the cheek to ever bid on one of my items again.

Long story. :o(

If I was in your shoes I'd tell the buyer the item is no longer available due to breakage/damage. You'll still have to pay the final value sale fee and live with the negative feedback the buyer will probably leave you. And don't forget to block them!

Thanks Snags. Don't think that's an option as she's put a bid on 4 items and they're all crafting items that don't break (card toppers and cello bags).

Thanks anyway.

Use this:

Thanks again Snags. I might just have to bite the bullet and sell the items to her. I'm trying not to get annoyed by it as I know it's not that important in the great scheme of things.

Perhaps I'm being too sensitive. Just been reading up on blocking bidders and it seems I couldn't block this person anyway.

Your input's appreciated. Cheers. x

What stops you stopping the sale? you can do that if you decided that you have had second thoughts.

[snags]

^ But not if there's less than 12 hours to go...

I still want to sell the stuff, just don't want to sell it to this particular eBayer who treated me quite badly in a previous transaction.

[TWR]

Cut your loses & stop the sale, there are other sites that you can use if need be.

[TWR]

You can also Edit the information & state that the Items will not be sold to this particular member due to "whatever your reason" but do not *** the member off.

[TWR]

I should have said instead of what I said, Rubbish the member off.

Thanks TWR.
