The mcgees.org eBay Bidder Blacklist
eBay make(s) it possible to blacklist (or, if you will, black list) bidders. This prevents the named eBay users from bidding on one’s auctions. The page has been made much more difficult to find, so here you go.
Given eBay’s recent “reforms” that essentially assume all buyers are good and all sellers are criminals, blocking bidders is going to be, more and more, the only recourse for sellers.
I’ll seed the list. I’ll maintain it in this top post in a form you can just cut-and-paste into your blocked list. I’ll have a comment that justifies each addition. Feel free to use my list. If you have additions, post your eBay ID, the bidder(s)’s ID(s), and the reason you block them. I’ll check it out, and if you have glowing feedback and the other guy has lousy feedback, I’ll incorporate your addition into my list.
Sellers can block up to 1000 User IDs. Yes, that’s a drop in the bucket, but it’s a start. Let’s get this list as close to 1000 bidders as possible. When we pass thirty User IDs, I’ll make it a text file you can download, rather than a list you cut-and-paste.
If you are one of the blocked bidders, you are welcome to post here and, in a civilized manner, explain why you do not deserve to be blacklisted. You get one shot at this. I will warn you in advance that it will be much more difficult to get off this list than to get on: the purpose of this is to protect sellers, something that eBay has/have ceased to do.
Over to you…

Thank you, handyhare. Just the sort of thing I was looking for.
I’ve added your blocks to my list.

Thank you! List has been updated. We’re at 697 right now.
The whole idea, of course, is the cost of losing a bid from one of these clowns is much lower than the cost of dealing with a non-paying bidder.
Too bad eBay limits you to 1000 — we’re coming up on that mighty quickly, if wc is to be believed.
March 25th, 2008 at 8:28 pm
I’m sorry for the post and run earlier, I should have elaborated. The users named above were either on my blocked list or those of close contacts. The majority of the user names collected are/were related to the clothing, accessories, and collectibles categories. You may want to become more selective and find lists of potenial *problem* bidders in your own niche when they (and hopefully they will be plentiful!) become available. Currently the blocked limit is 1,000 but will increase to 5,000 in May of this year. GEE, thanks ebay
Remove the little protection we had to fend off bogus buyers and give us the *bonus* of adding a whole 1/100,000,000 additional, POTENTIAL &$(%^’s to our lists. Oh, the defense….
In the meantime…Praying for a fair marketplace and hoping ebay (ok, I’ve had it with them!) gets what they deserve. Payback is always hell

bringebaydown, have you found a good alternative? I don’t think I really like iOffer.
May 14th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
We are sellers on ebay and spend a lot of time finding really cool vintage pieces to put up for auctions….as most of you know this takes time and we appreciate to have some respect for what we do….
Lately we have been hit by a virus of non paying bidders….Ant at this point i’m sick of it!!!!!!
There should be a site or even blog with all the non paying ebay bidders,yes, and I do find it would be much more interesting that we have there REAL NAMES and SHOPNAMES on this list……all this bidders have more then one ebay id and account and just switch over from one to the other…..
Thank you for your attention

dbear1251 - bidder was extremely unreasonable after UPS lost the package. Late night calls were made to me demanding information only UPS could know. This was after I emailed the bidder all the information I knew and told them the time line UPS required for lost packages. Even when I refunded the bidder’s money minutes after I received the final decision from UPS, the bidder left negative feedback stating I was slow to refund. Bidder even demanded interest on their purchase money….so frustrating!
