Any way to block search results from a particular seller?
Answered
There’s a particular seller who has such a large number of recurring listings in a—relatively niche but certainly active—category that it makes it hard to find any other listings. What that means is that of 250 listings in the category, 230 will be this one seller’s listings. I’ve seen the listings a thousand times and no force on Earth will ever compel me to pay the prices being asked. I certainly bear them no ill will but you cannot see the forest for the trees.

Gary-NZStocked Community SuperuserNo, you can't block them from appearing in search results, but you can exclude them if they for example have a common footer or common text in their listings and a couple of unique words or a grammar error or spelling mistake by doing a search and adding NOT "common search footer text, just a couple of unique consecutive words will do" to your search. If save the search, you can get emailed new listings that match, or you can run it from your Favourites page on here.
eg a search for Spode returns 200 results vs a search for Spode NOT "T&C APPLY, NO PO BOX" whittles out 117 to give 83 results.
I have a saved search I get results for every day that has 10 OR and 14 NOT search operands in it. I frequently add more or subtract/modify it and it is extremely effective and helpful.
