I have been having a fued with a seller who I bought from a few months ago. I had an auction that was ending tonight. The item was at $47, he bid it up to over $100, I saw his bid, cancelled it and emailed him and Safe Harbor and told him not to bid again. He placed two more bids, both for over $100 again. I cancelled both of them and then ended the auction. I was worried that he was going to snipe it in the end. He is doing this specifically to leave me negative feedback for another transaction 3 months ago. Will ebay suspend him since he was told not to bid and continued to do so? What will stop him from getting another aol account and bidding on auctions to leave me a negative? What can I do here?

Well if he leaves you a nasty libelous slanderous negative FB, you could hide your feedback to avoid this prick.

Addressing your actual questions - IME ebay has indeed NARU'd bidders who continue to bid after being directed otherwise. As to whether he can just obtain a new ID and rebid - all I can suggest is that if he's NARU'd, you keep an eye on your auctions for 0 FB bidders, and if any look suspicious, go through the procedure again and notify SafeHarbor that this is the same bidder. BTDT, and they NARU'd my nemesis bidder again.
Like with anything else, you can't actually stop 'em without killing 'em, but you can make messing with you more trouble than it's worth.
However, I'm kinda surprised that you're all cranked up about getting a retaliatory neg. Contrary to what you may think, when you get one of these, life does go on pretty much as normal

If he wanted to leave me a negative he chould have 3 months ago instead of messing with my auctions and bidding them up so he could win and get me. Now, I am receiving emails from him asking me who I am and what I am talking about. Trying to backtrack now, or pretend that someone else was using his account for this.
