Seller Shaming / Abuse

I am often fascinated that buyers sometimes take the time to private message me to express disdain for inflated prices on rare/htf items, or chastise me for selling items that I received as a gift with purchase.  Why do they do this?  If they really want something, but can't afford to pay the market price on eBay, then why not just move on?  Or just low-ball me on the items with best offer and be done with it?  But NOOOOO, they need to really stick it to you personally.  Since when did a marketplace become personal?

 

This has happened to me on Craigslist numerous amounts of times (because people can be dicks anonymously and without recourse there), but here on eBay, it really borders on abuse, and I wonder if I can report these people?

Seller Shaming / Abuse

Of course you are putting them on your Blocked Bidder List and opting for no communication, right?

 

If the abuse was threatening or obscene, you certainly can Report it to Trust and Safety, but generally ignore and delete is your best move.
