through ebay if I'll sell for less. I replyed to her and told her no, that is the lowest I will go. Thought that was it (she emailed 2x, both with 'Will you sell for LESS' in it)
Well she is writing now, and naming a price.
I do not have a 'submit best offer'. And told her twice before no. Do I just put her on blocked bidder list, or keep telling her no? Or has this happened to anyone else?

After the 2nd email, I looked her up, and she gives negs when 'she paid too much' (dumbest thing I've seen, no one pays too much, unless they want to! )

Thanks

Block her (sounds like trouble) and don't answer any more of her emails.

Cheryl is correct. Block that cheapskate and don't answer any more of her emails. You are better off with a NPB or no bids at all than you would be trying to deal with her.

What the others said...

I had one recently who kept asking me to put a BIN on the auction. After I said no she still wrote again pointing out there were still no bids, yada yada yada... I wonder if she tried to bid and found out she was blocked? I hope so...

Thank you all. I also wondered if ebay monitors the email that is sent from buyers? Not that I would want that, but in this one particular case I would :

I wonder what happens when a block bidder trys to bid

NTS, I think I've had your bidder before.

Long time no see. I thought of you recently when Art Bell was in the news.

I've had her too. In my case, I didn't block her (mistake) and she won. Never paid, kept asking me to reduce the price. At the time she was a newbie, and didn't know enough to return the feedback I gave her.

LOL, you've all had her as a bidder I see

Now looking at the 3 emails, I kind of want ebay to see this, but I'll let it go. I did block her

Fluffy! yes, that was awful to hear his wife died. You know that she used to do the Christmas show? Well, she read The Night before Christmas, they were inseparable, and hopefully he is ok. He should never had quit and give the show to Noory.

last time i knew, a few years back, if a blocked bidder tried to bid, they got a polite message from ebay on their screen saying something to the effect that the seller has chosen not to do business with that i.d. and to contact the seller if they wished to resolve the matter. (tried it out as an experiment with a friend. blocked her and she went in to bid, so we could find out what happened then. then removed her from the blocked bidder list.)

as for your bottom feeder who keeps writing you, i tell them there's no point in contacting me any further, as i don't have time for bottom feeders, they're on my blocked bidder list and any further communication will be regarded as harrassment. i don't hear another word from them after that. life's too short for all that.

You could always report her for attempting to do business outside of Ebay.

Not a good idea. Ebay don't care what the bidders do. They only care if sellers are selling outside ebay.
