Sellers choice !!!
Buyer's choice, there are lots of places to buy guns.
What's your feedback rating? Are you NR? Some sellers won't accept bids from a NR buyer.
Have you tried to contact the seller? There is a link for that on the auction page, and some sellers want to hear from a bidder before accepting his bid, especially if the bidder has problem or NR feedback.
I wish the GB system had a "notes" section on the blocked bidder part so I knew why I blocked someone. I'll block a person if they are a total a-hole in an email or message they send to me, but unless I have given them an F for being a non paying bidder its nearly impossible to figure out why I've blocked them. I don't block NR bidders or buyers that live in specific areas.....just people that frustrated me in some way.
So, when I get an email from someone asking to be "unblocked" and all I can see is that I blocked them 5 years ago.....its pretty frustrating because I know they deserved it, but I have no clue why??? I typically unblock them if they ask though (unless they are a NPB, I will not deal with a deadbeat again.)
Make sure your CC and all is up to date. I thought you could not block someone unless from the past being blocked, until the new seller does it to you for whatever reason.?
