I sold an item to this buyer this week and now his blacklisted, was just wondering why?

[lilythepink 11]

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.

Ok what do I do, do I have something to worry about?

Hi BB, you just go ahead and file an SNC, BOB will sort out the rest, so don't worry it will all work out, done this a couple of times:blink1:!

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.

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.

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!

Oh ok thanks qball. Very good reason eeeeek :blink:

Nope, he does know the seller, he sent in his documentation and shill bidding was explained to him, given a second chance :wink:
