Blocked his cheap @$$.

It’s one thing if there was competition. But this book always sells.

Can’t afford to spring $10 more for a book you really want when it’s already the lowest price on eBay/mercari in ANY condition? Then I’m not the seller for you, and this probably isn’t the book for you right now.

These are the type of buyers who will also get the book, complaint about a non color breaking crease and return, or try to weasel more money out of you, despite it being shown in the pictures and advertised as “NM.”

Avoid the headache.

I’ve dealt with that same buyer. He’s buying a lot of this stuff and sending cheap offers. I think he’s in China.

I sold this and another red hood book to this same guy the other day. He must be reselling them in China if he’s buying multiples of the same book. He sent me an offer initially but I told him to add another book and I’d give him a better deal. He went for it.

If you unblock him and negotiate, you’ll likely make the sale. I created a new listing for him with the books he wanted ,sent him an offer I was happy with, and he accepted.

LOL, that same guy messaged me last night too. I also have the cheapest copy on eBay and told him thanks but no thanks.

It’s 5 days later and he just bought the book at full asking price. Let’s see if he’s a problem buyer.

I love that eBay sends that email that says “Hey it got away but we can help you find another!” and you know they that are clicking the link to see what it sold for. So good.

Hah! What’s funny is he even though he already bought red hood hill 5 from me previously (which has since been delivered), he’s been messaging me almost daily offering $50 for my other copy. I told him I’m not budging from my price and his negotiating is really funny. Probably a language barrier thing, but he’s called us “old friends” numerous times, told me he intends to do business with me more in the future and I have to say, I find his messaging to be extremely entertaining.

My question is. What does he know that we don’t? He’s scooping up every copy he can of certain books.

I assume he’s reselling them in China for way more than he’s paying…

This is a great idea! (the entirety of a blocked list, instead of one-offs).
Copy & Paste is on the way!

Copy and pasted then added to mine. More often then not, when a buyer is trouble for one person he is trouble to most if not all sellers. I’ll take the list at face value and maybe save myself a headache or two down the road.

I used to buy and sell vintage hot wheels and we had a list like this. I remember getting hit up from people on ebay asking why they couldn’t buy my items. Well you screwed over someone in the community and ended up on a list, sorry.

Can they still message you on eBay if you block them as a buyer?

#707

Back then ya, not now…

I was scanning for my name as well…

What happens when you block yourself? Does that create a singularity…?
