Block a seller
Summary: A participant initiated a discussion on the topic of blocking a seller, but no content was provided in the posts. Another participant responded, but also without any content. Consequently, there was no detailed discussion or resolution shared.
I've gotten burned by a seller and would not like to see their offerings in my search results going forward. I don't know that our interaction would be enough to merit reporting them for fraud and frankly I don't care to do that much work. I just want to not see them anymore. I've done some searching around both in eBay's documentation and outside. Asked the AI agent for help. Block a seller? "Can you rephrase that?" Block a buyer? Detailed instructions for how to do it.
Why should it fall to me to maintain a list of sellers that I don't want to deal with when it's so easy for sellers to simply block buyers?

You can block a specific seller(s) items from showing up in your search results, but it might be more work than you want to do. Go to Advanced Search, scroll down to the Sellers section; you'll see that it defaults to Include, but click the arrow and change that to Exclude. This is not a generic across the board block of the seller; it works only for that one search. But you can save the search, then call it up and modify it for other searches.
