lilythepink 10 Posted November 17, 2010 Must be a very good reason! Could be a shill bidder? Could be false information given when registering on BoB? There are so many reasons why a person could be blacklisted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BumbleBabe 10 Posted November 17, 2010 No, payment cleared this morning and all is well, I was just wondering with 3 perches and 2 good ratings what could possibly be the reason for black listing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ATA STAMP CENTRE 42 Posted November 17, 2010 HI Great work admin.I think all shill bidders should be named and shamed here on the forum.Not the blacklisted seller but the original seller who is responsible for setting up the 2nd account and doing the shill bidding.What about A REGISTER of the offenders.Will definitely make any seller think twice about doing it again and also give the buyers the option to support ethical sellers before those that have offended.

NEIL That is one of the BEST suggestions I have yet heard on this forum! The shill-bidder register should be as much of an institution as the thread to report non-paying bidders. Seconded!
