eBay craziness

Am I correct that on ebay, a blocked bidder can still send you messages? I'm pretty sure that's happened to me...

I had it happen to me. They could still message me through a recent purchase before I blocked them. Then after a short time eBay must have stopped them from sending more or nutty Mathew would have sent more.

That's annoying - seems like something they could fix if they wanted to. Another thing that bugs me is that they allow bidders from excluded shipping locations to bid on items - or at least in my case that's happened a bunch of times.

Many foreign buyers have US shipping addresses, like COMC Mailboxes, Shipmycards, etc. So eBay restricting people by country doesn't make a ton of sense, since people can have addresses in multiple countries.

I really used and enjoyed eBay years ago.

But all the changes and the ways people use eBay. And how many items are put on sale with a price super high and the same item is posted for years seems like some people use it just to display their cards
Especially frustrating when they are some amazing cards likes this that we want
