Being blocked by a seller for no reason

[dunstersouthwick]

Hi,

Today I asked two questions of a seller, well really the same question twice.  From their answer, I thought they perhaps didn't understand the first time.  Then I got a sharp reply back saying they don't have time to answer questions.  I appologised and explained I still wanted to buy the item if it contained the information I needed.

I then decided to just take a chance and buy the item, at this point I discovered I had been blocked from buying the item by the seller. 

This all seems pretty unfair and not inline with the way things are normally done on ebay.

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks

No there is nothing you can do. It is up to the seller to decide who they allow to bid.

It depends on what questions you were asking

Many sellers would block if they thought there were any chance of a problem 

I know that does not seem fair but as a seller you have to protect yourself best you can
