It happened on more than one occasion for the same seller seperated by several weeks so it has to be related to the interaction between our two accounts... the seller said they would take the issue up with eBay support but since I have not found anything of interest that they have for sale since that time I can not confirm whether it was resolved or not. <br /> <br />I now always check that the seller has deliberately blocked me when I get this status. <br /> <br />As far as being blocked from communicating, I have had this, sometimes from sellers that have also blocked my bids, it appears that it is a seperate and independent option that a seller can select. <br /> <br />I tend to assume that a seller that blocks bids after you enquire about authenticity alreafy knows that they are selling fake items, so that kind of block I actually welcome as it saves me the hassle of complaining later.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>MusicalMan</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu May 05, 2011 9:07 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Mario, <br /> <br />I had the same thing happen May 04, 201112:13:03 PDT, item #110680250263. My gixen bid was 10.56; the item sold for the minimum bid of 9.99. <br /> <br />This is a seller with whom I have done business several times including just a week or two ago. I wrote to inquire if he had blocked me for some reason and he replied "No, please try again" (How? Item sold!) and he did not know what might have happened. I'm wondering if it was a glitch in eBay or Gixen for a day or two? <br /> <br />It has been my experience (the one time I was blocked by a seller, and the one time a friend of mine was) that it is not just bidding that is blocked, but once blocked, you cannot even *contact* the seller. <br /> <br />As a side note, I'll agree that some sellers block bidders for odd reasons. I was blocked AFTER paying for an item simply because I questioned (on the PayPal receipt!) why the seller had included "or best offer" yet refused an offer of like 9.50 on a $10 item. The seller refunded my payment, saying the item was 'defective' and not available, then relisted it immediately and blocked me from any bidding or contact. When I left neutral feedback for the transaction, she then asked me for a feedback revision some months later! <br /> <br />My friend was blocked by a seller for merely asking a question about whether a certain guitar pick was authentic or not. <br /> <br />Anyway, I'd be curious about this error: <br />EBAY ERROR: SELLER NOT ACCEPTING BID <br /> <br />Because it cost me an item I'd wanted very badly, and apparently (and according to the seller, and best as I can determine) no reason for it.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>BADBOB2219</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon May 02, 2011 10:15 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">hey <br /> <br />i only asked if he would combine shipping ??? <br /> <br />bobhandyman is a fool , he lost money (my bids were higher) !!! <br /> <br />later <br />me</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Cupid</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon May 02, 2011 5:04 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Agreed, <br /> <br />To some people what I do probably seems strange.. that is my problem :oops: :cry: :shock: :lol:</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>nochkin</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon May 02, 2011 4:36 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Cupid, <br />Sellers are the the only users who do strange things.
