How do I block a seller

Question

There is a particular seller who lists things on here that I would consider to be close to scammer level and I want to know if I can block their stuff from showing up in my suggestions. I haven't purchased anything from them and I'm not sure why anyone would. Can you block people?

You cannot simply block a seller the way that a seller can block a bidder or buyer, but you can exclude the seller's items from appearing in a specific search.

From your search results, go to the Advanced Search page to the seller section, select "only show items from" and then check "exclude". Enter up to ten seller usernames separated by commas and hit "search". Then bookmark or save the search results.

If you use the bookmarked or saved search results as the basis for further searches, you can continue to exclude those sellers' items from your results.
