You can ignore him if you choose.   If his messages to you are obviously offensive, you can report him.   There is a report link on every message.   If you put him on your blocked bidder list that may block him from sending you messages, too.

There is a report link in each message.........Use it.

 

BLOCK this person:  Site Map at the bottom of any page, middle column, block bidder/buyer list.

 

STOP responding.  It just adds fuel to the fire............

Put him in your blocked list, make sure to check the box that blocks those on it from contacting you and report the messages.

 

I would also keep an eye out for any bidders on that item that come from the same location as them as well-good luck.

Thanks. I actually reported him. He feels angered cause my item im selling is "misleading". However its listed truthfully and plain as day. I honestly believe he doesnt have a life. Here is the listing. RTR means ready to run as in a copyrighted brand name of Athearn. I also listed it as a project, which it is. HE feels I shouldnt of placed RTR in the ad and that its misleading even though it specifically states its project.

I looked this guy up just for grins. His FB's left for others is kind of creepy. I'd say block him. He is a prolific purchaser of the type of items you sell, so it is only a matter of time until he bids on one of your listings.
