Have you ever been blocked by an E seller here?

I was browsing through the ads over the weekend and on an item I clicked on, I saw the words "blocked". I have never ever done business with this person before. I did however call him out via private message that he was being very misleading in his ad for something he was selling. He gave me a snarky reply and that was the end of it, I didn’t press further. What do you make of it? I am quite annoyed as I have an impeccable record in the classifieds.

Wow, such pettiness...
It seems to be a sign of the times, unfortunately.
If only we could instill a higher moral standard to guide the 'Better Angels of our Nature'.

I just recalled a listing with a 'Make offer', which I did- $1000 less than the listed price. (Originally, $8,500).
The seller offered the original price in response.
When I asked, ' Why offer a 'Make offer', if you want only your asking price, he/she replied that ' I have “make offer” because I have to qualify buyers'.
If anyone can make sense of that response, let me know.
Needless to say, I wouldn't buy anything from that dealer, no matter how good a deal I got.

@stereo5 .
I wouldn't care if I got blacklisted. Hifi Shark is your friend in these cases.
Thankfully, the internet has balanced the power such dealers try to command.

@uberwaltz,
I concur.
