How can I find this Ebay member?

I am trying to find an Ebay seller. I know bits of his user name but not the whole thing and can't find him.
Is there any clever way of doing it? I know his postcode but he doesn't have anything to sell at the moment so I can't find any way of finding him.
Can any Ebay experts help?
TIA.

You used to be able to search on part of a user name and it would bring up all combinations that included that name - not done that for a while so don't know if you still can.

Type what you think their name is with 'ebay shop' into google? see what it brings up.0

Tick the "Show close and exact user ID matches" box0 -
How do you know they have nothing for sale?
Is their item unique?
What is the item?
You could look for similar items if its collectable, check sellers feedback and look at buyers feedback to see if the name appears in their buying list.
I will explain this one.
You remember a seller that sold the best corgi batmobile but cannot think of his user name. Look for collectors who buy Batmobiles by searching for the same.Then check their feedback, good buyers and sellers will appear quite often in feedback for similar items.
It has worked for me in the past.0
