Hi, I hope you find this post very helpful,
For those of you that do a general "Pentax" search for item's for sale on what I prefer to call "Fleabay" and find a plethora and flooding of sellers touting batteries, wide angle screw on lenses, battery chargers, camera cases, and just plain flooding of items using the Pentax tag.
Having arrived at a solution and a blocked sellers list eliminating having to sort through all their listings to find legitimate Pentax equipment for sale. So far this is for items within North America. Hopefully when I find the time this list can be expanded to a worldwide elimination of blocked sellers list, ie: HONG KONG, a literal irritant to me personally flooding eBay with listings.
For example when doing a general search for "Pentax" on fleabay, 31,000+ results appear, When narrowing the search down to North America. The item list drops to around 16,000, when adding the blocked sellers list, the item count drops to around 5,000 plus of legitimate Pentax equipment listings.
I am sure these are all legitimate sellers , but when its an item you really do not want to look at nor searching for then the obvious block will help narrow your fleabay search down.
Here is my list of blocked sellers, Feel free to add to it when another "flooder of listings" is found.
