Can't add to Block Bidders List

Hello, I haven't added to the list in a long time but now as I am trying to add to it, somehow it will not retain it.

It says I successfully added but when I go to look it isn't there.  I have done this over and over again and it just won't post or add the new bidder.

ckimodog, that worked. 

To the OP, please don't take this wrong, are you clicking "submit" before closing the window?

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

Hey, mom! I just went into mine and added you (successfully), but then deleted you from the list. 😊

 

Are you using a comma after the last name on your list then a space, then add the user ID? When I do that, it holds the name. I looked you up (alphabetically) after I added you and it worked for me.

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

I tried the link ckimodog posted and got a "sorry something went wrong" message. Guessing the OP found the link to add name(s), but just in case: Block buyers from your listings | eBay

Yes I am doing that.  It is what I have always done but now I can't.  I have another shop and I tried on that one as well and it just won't hold it.  So weird.

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

Is it possible that you filled your list with the 5000 (?) limit?

It sure is. I don't have any other ideas... the old 'comma, space' trick is the only one I know. Darn.

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

That is where I am going but just FYI, this link you sent says something went wrong.  I don't think links work in this forum if you click on them.

I just want to know why it won't hold the new name I enter.  I am doing it correctly.

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

Don't know how many names on your blocked list but when a name is added they are listed numerically and alphabetically. If a username starts with a number, say 1, then it would be first followed by names with 2,3 etc. Same for letters a, b, c etc. Newly saved username(s) would not be at the end of the list unless of course that is where they should be, such as one that starts with a z. 

Have you tried clearing your browsing and cache history then checking your list again. Sometimes doing that will unlock newly saved things and remove old items that were unsaved but still in the memory.

Re: Can't add to Block Bidders List

YEAH, YOU SOLVED THE PROBLEM!!!!  Thank you.  I haven't done it in so long I forgot that it is alphabetical and numerical.

 

All the very best and thank you for helping me not to go completely out of my mind. (:
