I had a buyer contact me about postage options for an item. Even though it was a pick up only item I said I could post it for her (as she said she had just had surgery) OR that depending on where she lived I also offered to drop item off at her house. However she never ended up bidding! I think she assumed we were doing a behind the scenes deal but she never openly offered to buy it outright so I wasn't aware. The item sold with one bid to another buyer when the auction ended. The lady is now messaging me calling me all sorts of names e.t.c! I didn't know she was wanting to buy it behind the scenes (which I wouldn't have done anyway) I thought she was just enquiring about postage option! Have reported it and tried to block them. Question: Does blocking them from bidding on my items also block them from sending me more messages/emails?

I'm not sure about the blocked bidder system, but at the bottom of every message through eBay's system is a "Report This Message" link. I'd be following the link and report her and see what happens.
Good luck,
Marina.

*waves to marina*
and the OP
OP, as arranged on your other thread, I have just sent you through 3 messages, one through your listing, one through your ID and one through your FB score (all from My eBay, not through the PM system of the boards)
Please let us know if they went through, cos I'm kinda curious now LOL

Thank you crikey*mate! Yep message still went through. Will need to start reporting from now on. Thanks for the help ๐

You're welcome!
found this - basically it says to report, doesn't mention about blocking them (although make sure they are on your blocked bidders list anyway)
