Edinburgh_buy_and_sell threatened me

Long story short, had a bad experience with this seller edinburghbuyand_sell.

He left me, the buyer, negative and unfair feedback. It was revenge feedback for my neutral feedback left for him.
I messaged him and after a few message he threatened me saying 'I have your full name and address'

Please beware this seller. I have reported him to eBay and am considering calling 101 now as well.

eBay will remove his feedback if he left you a neg statement on a pos rating.

calling 101? really? i'm sorry but get a grip.

19lottie82 · 19/05/2015 10:06

report them to ebay and have done with it.

unfortunately you come across loads of nutters on ebay, if you want to call the police everytime you encounter one, then you should really give ebay a miss.

Accounted hundreds of nutters but seriously when someone threatens to use your private name and address information?
Seems that what the police are for?

mmmminx - it is possible for a seller to leave a negative statement for a buyer even though they can't leave a neg feebak.

He hasn't threatened you. "I have your name and address" is not a threat.

If he said "I have your name and address so I'm going to come over there and beat you up", yes, that's a threat.

But calling 101? You'd just be wasting police time and you know it.

Lottie why use those terms then? They were designed to scare and intimidate. Personally I'd have responded with and I know yours too, but maybe if you live on your own you'd feel much more vulnerable.

It looks like you have blown this all out of proportion. I've looked at your feedback to him. Things happen, and he took to long to post something. It's not the crime of the century.
