If I block someone, can they still contact me?

Options
I should not have bothered replying but I've never blocked someone for being a PITA before.

Will she able to send me emails asking why she cannot buy??

    Yes. You're free to ignore them though. If it turns into harassment, report them.

    You can decide if they can contact you or not. Although you can't choose it for individual users - its either all blocked users or none...

    They can still contact you if they click on your Ebay ID and send a direct message via Contact Seller.

    I love getting these as it means the blocks are working, and I get perverse enjoyment reading the 'so unfair, why have u blocked me???????' wails when PITA buyers realise you've cottoned on to them.
