Blacklisting
We'll show you how to block a member from asking questions, or bidding on your auctions.
Blacklisting gives you control over who you trade with.
What does my Blacklist do?
- Blacklisting a trader will stop them from asking questions or bidding on your auctions.
- Your Blacklist is private – other members can't see who you've blacklisted, or who's blacklisted you.
- Blacklisted members can still view your listings.
- If someone you've Blacklisted tries to bid or ask a question on your listing, they'll be told they've been blacklisted.
Adding or removing members to your Blacklist
Only Authenticated members can add members to their Blacklist.
- Select Settings from 'My Trade Me'.

I've been Blacklisted – what can I do?

- Blacklisting is the choice of the individual trader – we don't ask for a reason.
If another member has been abusive or inappropriate – please let us know.
