ebay blocking buyers

Does anyone have any info of when the glitch with buyers being blocked is going to be fixed as I have quite a few buyers being blocked since the 18th and is still going on today.

Oh sorry. I just clicked on your View Listings in the post and left the Search as Best Match, so I've checked down the Auction & Free Postage items from the top. Then I went to BIN (just so you know what listings I have looked at)

Re: ebay blocking buyers

I am having this problem too....the worse case is one buyer from Queensland tried  to purchase my items (id 171466730057) last night and it keeps saying that she is in the location that I don't post to,  I am in Victoria and only ships within Australia. Then this morning she managed to buy one piece of one colour and tried to buy another colour from the same listing and it came up with the postage problem same as last night...until now she can't buy the second piece at all.... That is very strange as it is the same listing and it is very frustrating for me) :

Re: ebay blocking buyers

If you check this link you will be able to see how many sales you have lost.

I have only lost 5 sales but those buyers could have been wanting to buy much more, that also assumes that that part of ebay actually works.

 

If you have sold an item allready to them I would just send them a paypal invoice.

That listing seems to be OK for me in NSW if that helps. It sounds like a sporadic thing. Your Qld buyer may have had trouble, but the next Qld buyer might have no issues at all.

Re: ebay blocking buyers

I have had 14 unique buyers blocked since 18th & still happening today 23rd.

 

I'm getting to the stage where I'm going to bulk revise all my listings & take off the overseas location block.

Re: ebay blocking buyers

write or phone ebay - they still insist nothing's wrong - surely if enough people complain they will fix it.

 

see previous thread "location glitch" on the selling board

They have now admitted that there is a problem & are trying to fix it.

 

But how long do we have to wait!
