Unfortunately, as in anything in the world today, you have those who do not "play well with others"  Ebay is as full of these people as it is full of very nice, honorable people.  I have experienced and  shared in emails some junior high school behavior on Ebay.  My problems with these people has a funny side, they are those who play with dolls, (like me)! But some play unfair and are slanderous, ESPECIALLY some Crissy sellers,  but i've also had 1 run in with an ultra nasty seller of Barbie clothing.  Here is the problem that I'd like to shine a light on, 1 seller dislikes something another person does or says, and sets out to block and then slander in blogs so others will do the same.  I told a seller that unless she sold shoes with her doll, the doll was not mint.  She posed the doll in shoes, called her mint with all her original clothing items but would not let the shoes go, she wanted to be greedy and sell them seperately. After several transactions with this particular woman and glowing feedback from her, she cancels my bid and blocks me!!  I emailed and apologized for upsetting her, she ignored me.  I did not think much about it but I tried to bid on items from 2 other Crissy dealers and was BLOCKED!!!  I had NO dealings with them, they did not know me, I have 100 % feedback, nothing there to justify.  I emailed seller and she said, I DO NOT KNOW WHY YOU ARE BLOCKED. Hmmmm, I thought, how peculiar, she unblocked me and i bought an item.  Then it happened AGAIN!! What the H*#K, i emailed this seller and she says, I do not know why.  It took forever to unblock, when she did she says, I must have heard something about you and did that, I have cancer she says and wanted no hassels, I replied, WHY would you do that, not knowing anything about me, no transactions with me and good feedback to read. She simply did not know!

WELL, I was emailing the winner of a item from me that I had sold one doll to earlier and she was fairly new, I was appalled to see 3 negative nasty feedbacks left for her and low and behold, 1 was from the instigator of this blocking "club" I had been exposed to.  I emailed and asked her what was up, seems these "women" and I will use the term loosley as they seem so childish, have alittle club on here and blog all about their Crissy Doll dealings and also trounce on other buyers and sellers they don't care for. I guess Ol Shirley from Ohio (not her user name) had trashed me on the blogs and these others blocked me in unison. It's laughable, i know but also a pain in the a$$ when you are trying to further your collecting.  I ask that the rest of you Ebayers out there, play nice and judge other buyers and sellers by YOUR dealings, not the rantings of a few immature, i don't have anything better to ,dolly bloggers out there.  I work hard to maintain my feedback and get along very nicely with almost everyone, I have made many ebay friends, I ask those of you reading this to be fair, make up your minds and don't misuse the blocking feature of ebay! Junior High School is over, there should be no room this nonsense!!

thanks for letting me rant in this guide and as always,

HAPPY EBAYING!! :)
