How to Block a Buyer on eBay

If you’re worried about rogue buyers, blocking them can help you avoid problems like frivolous return requests or negative feedback. You can block buyers by using eBay’s Block Buyer Page. Just type the user ID or email address in the text area and click submit.

You can block up to 5,000 usernames or emails. Make sure that you separate them with a comma.

Buyers who don’t pay

If you’re tired of dealing with buyers who never pay, you can block them from buying your items. This can prevent repeat offenders from wasting your time and money, while also protecting your reputation. You can block buyers based on their shipping location, buyer requirements, or both. You can also block buyers who have a history of unpaid orders, frivolous return requests, or both.

You can access the blocking function in your eBay seller account by using either Account Settings or Help & Contact. Once you’re logged in, click on the drop-down menu beside your username and select Account Settings. Then scroll down to Selling Preferences and then Blocked Buyers List.

On the Blocked Buyers page, enter the user IDs or email addresses of the buyers you want to block. You can add up to 5000 users, and remember to separate them with commas. Once you’ve finished, click the ‘Submit’ button to save your changes.

Buyers who back out of bids

Buyers who back out of bids are a real pain in the neck for sellers, and they can cause serious damage to your eBay reputation. Luckily, there are a few ways to block these buyers from bidding on your listings. One way is to use the blocking feature in your account settings. You can find this feature under the Buyer Requirements page. You can also search for users by user name or email address. The search results will show you the exact user names if they are sellers as well, and you can block them from contacting you about your listings.

To block a buyer, go to the Blocked Buyers Page and enter their username in the text box. You can block up to 5,000 usernames, but you should always make sure to separate them with commas. Once you’ve entered the user name, click “Submit.” You can also restore old blocked buyer lists if necessary.

Buyers who have negative feedback

Buyers who leave negative feedback can cause your business harm, whether by wasting time with frivolous return requests or bad comments. This type of behavior can also result in non-payment and loss of sales from serious buyers. If you find yourself in a situation where you have to deal with such buyers, consider using eBay’s block buyer feature.

This can help you avoid dealing with buyers who don’t pay or back out of bids. It can also help you prevent them from viewing your listings or contacting you about any potential issues with past purchases.

To block a buyer, visit the eBay Blocked Buyer List page and enter the user ID or email address of the individual. You can add up to 5,000 users to the list. You can also use the ’Restore list’ option to restore previous iterations of the list. Make sure to click ‘submit’ after entering the usernames to save your changes.

Buyers who have been flagged for fraud

You can block buyers from your eBay sale by adding them to your Blocked Buyers List. This prevents them from purchasing or bidding on your listings, and they won’t be able to contact you. You can add up to 5000 users to the list. To do so, go to your Selling Overview page and copy the buyer’s username. Enter it into the text box in your Blocked Buyers List, separating them with a comma.

The best way to avoid problems is to preemptively block problematic buyers before they become a problem. These buyers may include those who are belligerent right off the bat, those with a history of negative feedback, or those who repeatedly cancel orders. You should also report abusive buyers per eBay’s Abusive Buyer Policy.

You can block buyers from specific shipping locations as well by visiting the Buyer Requirements page and checking the corresponding boxes. This can be useful for sellers who only want to sell in certain countries or states.
