A seller blocked me for leaving negative feedback on a previous order

[macahead14]

I tried to buy a book today and got the message 'The seller isn't accepting bids or offers from you ' I looked up what that message meant and found out that it means the seller had blocked me. So I looked up what previous orders I made from that seller and found out that it was one I left negative feedback on. The last book I ordered from them got held up by Royal Mail and took nine days to get to me, and I said so in my feedback. EBay kept asking me if I was sure I wanted to leave negative feedback , and persuading me to discuss the problem with the seller, but never told me that the seller could block me for it. I was never told that the seller had blocked me, and only found out today. I'm now wondering if a seller is allowed to block a buyer over just ONE negative review over something that wasn't their fault.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, from a sellers perspective… why would you leave the seller negative feedback for an issue with Royal Mail? I can understand why they blocked you, I would do the same to prevent future bad feedback like this which would be out of my control. If the seller sent the item on time and the quality and customer service was good, the bad service is with Royal Mail, not them
