You might want to block this buyer on Ebay12966

Collector harmonicaman private msg quote post Address this user
So I got this weird email from Ebay’s messages on September 22:

Hi
I want to buy our army at war#207 vf+ 8.5. But not open my Ebay closed sad. How I want to buy our army at war#207 vf+ ?
Thank you again

I did not respond because I did not understand what he was asking.


So I get this message at 11:21 this morning:

Hi
Good morning
I want to buy our army at war#207 vf+ let know
Thank you again

Again, I don’t respond because I don’t really know what he wants from me. If you want the comic just bid on it. He has 1083 feedbacks all as a buyer.

So at 2:26 I get this message:

Biggest f***.you your shi*

Wow, I don't need this kind of vibe. Instant blocked bidders list (moff_kri) by the way

Thank you sir. May I have another? Siggy private msg quote post Address this user
Clearly the 'y' works on his phone or computer, so it seems he can't spell "your."
Either that or the guy thinks he's already part is owner.

Seems like a combo of an individual who didn't get past 3rd grade AND has the temper of a Honey Badger.
Just be happy you never actually physically encountered him

I might have have asked him "what do you think is a fair price?"...and then blocked him before he could respond.

Blocked, thanks. Now hear me out. Having investigated eBay fraud, this person who is obviously a foreigner wrote the following:

"I want to buy our army at war#207 vf+ 8.5. But not open my Ebay closed sad. How I want to buy our army at war#207 vf+ ?
Thank you again"

What he was trying to say was "I want to buy your comic (Our Amy At War). But I am unable to pay through eBay. How can I purchase this comic from you?"

He probably would have suggested by check, and would have sent you a counterfeit check hoping you would have mailed the comic before it cleared. Of course this could be all in my suspicious mind! Tough to take the cop outta me!

My latest message from my buddy moff_kri : "Bitc*"

I always thought if a person was on your blocked bidder list that they couldn't message you either. Guess it's time for a call to Ebay to complain.

Yeah, they should see his previous message too.

There's different ways/levels of blocking. Something similar happened to me as well. I called eBay and they did something on there end that prevented this person from messaging/bidding/BIN etc. Just blocking doesn't necessarily block the person from every way of contacting you.

Click on "Account" in your My eBay then click on "Site Preferences", scroll down until you see "Buyer Requirements", click "Edit", scroll down to the last option, and click to block members who are on your blocked bidder list from contacting you.

From what I understand, if you block someone, they can still message you if they have been messaging you before the block.

But you can block them from this with the instructions above.

Wait. Over 1000 feedback as a buyer. I certainly would gotten his offer even if I had to use sign language. Sometimes cash is little better then some broken English

Yea... this is not only about broken english. This is incoherent mumbo jumbo combined with a background of anger issues. The anger is the concerning aspect.

1000 feedback or not, there are folks to just stay clear of in life based on potential to not go well. I would surmise the potential exists here and .... well.... it's just not worth the money sometimes.

Buying comics on Ebay isn't rocket science. You make a bid, send me your money, I securely package it, and ship it in a day. Pretty basic. I have learned that buyers who make it needlessly complicated or difficult or want to circumvent the rules, are just not worth the $17 I would get for the comic. Then, to get profane with me twice over it is kinda childish. The comic in question is not rare. There are millions of sane and rational people available as Ebay buyers. Blocking a few people now and again is not a big deal. For the most part, I have dealt with some pretty wonderful people on Ebay

Well, here we go again with this pest. The Our Army At War #207 he wants so bad currently has a bid from another buyer. So I get another message from the original jerk: "Fuc* you big shi* your head" This is the third obscene message I've gotten from this guy now. I had put him on my blocked list a couple of weeks ago, but when I checked it just now it wasn't there. So I have put him back on it again. I will be calling Ebay, enough is enough. I do Ebay for fun, I don't need to be insulted. It's almost stalking, all for a $16 comic. moff_kri is the name in question, go ahead and block.

You should have replied and say "Thank you for your interest in the item for sale and your kind gesture. Sorry you missed out on the item but we have found a similar item for you."

Part of me laughs this kind of behavior off, but part of me finds it disturbing too. 3 obscene messages over a $16 item seems unhinged.

@harmonicaman This would annoy me as well. I'm sorry you're experiencing this. I blocked him 2 weeks ago when you first reported this. I'd tell eBay as well. They should cancel his account.

Collector harmonicaman private msg quote post Address this user
I called Ebay about this. The person was interested, but uncertain about what they could do. Part of the problem is that he isn't an actual buyer, but only an interested buyer. He told me he would have to take it further up the management chain and look into it. We'll see how that goes.
