I cant get responses to genuine questions!

[magic_mat1]

I have been looking at buying certain models of Fender Stratocaster guitars and after being messed around trying to buy elsewhere I decided to try Ebay. I have had my account for years but got put off when I tried to buy an item but because my account was new it would not let me and I ended up just going to Amazon. 

The problem I have is that people simply ignore me because I have no purchases. I even asked someone to give me any response of any kind just so I know someone is at the other end (ad has not been updated for months) but I just get ignored. 

How do I purchase anything if sellers completely ignore me no matter what I do? Incredibly frustrating!

That only applies to messages, not blocking responses from members you asked on a public forum

You're not going to 'like' every response you are given

Opening two threads for the same thing won't change the answers

But given your replies to some people here and your attitude, I would'nt be replying to your messages either

Sellers have the right to not answer,  if you don't like that, don't buy.

Sellers can block & not receive messages if they have specifics in place

I will message them with a link to this thread....good luck!

Hi, a potential buyer has come on to the eBay forums, wondering why they are unable to get a response from you....maybe you have blocks in place??

Please see here: https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/New-to-eBay/I-cant-get-responses-to-genuine-questions/m-p/2557762#M...

Cheers!

All the best....I hope you hear from them

It would be interesting to hear the other side of this story Twyn.

If I was the seller and saw the OP's comment on this forum, I definitely wouldnt be responding, and would block them from buying.

If the seller has blocks in place - why would that message get through. ??
