Blocking a seller?
Is there a way to block a seller so you don't see their items or accidentally buy from someone you don't want to deal with?
I purchased something and it came in smelling like cigarette smoke (this was not disclosed on the listing and I am very allergic to it) I had an allergic reaction to it and would prefer to not purchase from this seller again. Aside from keeping a list of sellers not to buy from on a notepad on my desk, is there an easier way to block them so I don't even see them?
Any help would be appreciated.

·1 year agoYou can block up to 10 sellers' items from showing up in a search result using the filters in Advanced Search or in the left column of the search results page (More Refinements: Seller). You find the filter where you limit the results to those of given seller(s) and change the "Include" to "Exclude" and list up to 10 IDs in the following text box.
You can then save the search (link towards the top left of the results) and then access the saved search in My eBay: Saved Searches (you'll probably want to turn off notices of new listings while you're there) changing the keywords and other filters as needed to find what you are looking for. You can save multiple searches with up to 10 sellers excluded in each to use for searches in different categories (or other way to distinguish which set of sellers is most likely to have listings in what you are searching for).
