Have you ever been blocked by an E seller here?

I was browsing through the ads over the weekend and on an item I clicked on, I saw the words "blocked". I have never ever done business with this person before. I did however call him out via private message that he was being very misleading in his ad for something he was selling. He gave me a snarky reply and that was the end of it, I didn’t press further. What do you make of it? I am quite annoyed as I have an impeccable record in the classifieds.

Thanks uberwaltz, I feel better knowing I am not the only one.  I am more insulted about it than anything else.  It's their loss as there are plenty of deals to be had if patient enough.

I have been critical of a dealer over the use of “shill” friend-fake reviewer hawking their products.

I am “blocked” from buying their products here, but I have found them cheaper from a better source,

So screw him.

Agreed most of the sellers who are likely to block are the ones who have been called out over some huge discrepancy or even flat out lie in their ads.
It is not like I am now interested in buying from them anyway so who cares if they block me, their loss I say.

Wow, such pettiness...
It seems to be a sign of the times, unfortunately.
If only we could instill a higher moral standard to guide the 'Better Angels of our Nature'.
