eBay

I have received offers from seller this past week wherein the ONLY option available was ACCEPT. There was no decline or counteroffer button available. All those offers were for a full 48 hours duration and I could not get them off my summary page without buying or waiting 2 days for expiration. My most recent buy was ACCEPTING the most recent one just to not have to view it in my summary. Had previously asked seller on the 2 earlier offers to retract, which seller failed to do. Looks like a problem with the make offers to buyers function or sellers should not be permitted to make a watcher an offer without the option to decine or the rules need tightened. I now have a purchase enroute that I did not want to buy but did so to get rid of the clutter on my summary page since I was tired of seeing it. Can ebay fix?

You do know that the seller is not to blame because there is not a "decline" button offered? And I don't see a seller retracting an offer just to clean up your view, especially during a holiday time. And that is NOT a valid reason to leave negative feedback. I do send offers so I have done you the favor of adding you to my blocked bidders list so there is no possibility of me adding to your annoyance.

Seems there was a post in the last month or so where it was questionable if the BBL was an effective tool when the buyer was sent an offer.

Yeah, kind of. There was a post on the shipping board this month from someone that was upset they received a seller initiated offer, but that seller had the buyer's country blocked. Tyler from eBay confirmed they shouldn't have received the offer and passed it on for review.

GLORIOUS!
