Sorry we all went a bit off topic.    There doesn't seem to be an option in the ebay listing to block parcel lockers.     The only think I can think of is putting an extra sentence in your listing in the relevant items "I do not post to parcel lockers - please use a delivery address"  but (a) that in itself would be time-consuming for you, and (b)  we all know that buyers don't read.  😀

Perhaps you could just count your blessings that you have so many sales that emailing buyers would cost you some time.

I am amazed at how many small business people are actually reluctant to email clients.

 

I have international postage blocked, but still get regular requests to post overseas (via email),  I respond,  and often those responses turn into sales.   Just a month or 2 back,  someone wanted a $50 purchase, and sent a request through, which I knocked back of course,  but about 6 (yes 6) emails later, we came up with a solution,  and instead of $50, I had an over $700 sale,  because I took the time to respond to 6 (oh wow) emails.

 

Some small business people are there own worst enemy,

I wouldn't exactly call p9games a small business seller, considering his turnover.

I gather that was for the other poster - as I have not mentioned p9??

And just to clarify,   When I receive a message from a buyer it comes through as an email to me,   and I reply back to that email via outlook, and it goes back via the Ebay system.  So technically all of my communications to buyers is via Email, as I don't need to log into Ebay to actually reply to messages.   You should try it, 

If intent on giving advice - please make it correct.

 

As for upsetting me - I only get upset when it matters - you don't.

Its a combination of brain surgeon and rocket science. I had to google it as I heard someone say it this morning and remembered reading it somewhere a few days ago. 

Totally aware of this.
