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.
