Block store on Marketplace

It would be amazing to be able to block a store's content from showing in Marketplace. Instead of adding a store as a favorite you could click to add store to a blocked list and then their content would no longer show in your search results.

this seems very discriminatory. you can choose not to shop there. some people make a lot of items, their extra work motivation should not get them blocked.

I've always wanted this in the Marketplace:
When I search for something like 'coffee cup' — obviously looking for an actual coffee cup — by the second, third, and fourth page, I see 300 t-shirts from the same creators in different colors, all with a coffee cup printed on them.
Many creators use this spammy tactic to flood Marketplace search results.
Another example: I'm still looking for my 'coffee cup,' but by the fifth, sixth, and seventh page, I see 300 'AI art' textures showing a nude girl holding a coffee cup.
And yes, many creators do this too.
I’d love to be able to hide these creators. I think that would encourage them to be less spammy.

Blockable shops

We have a feature in the marketplace for favorite shops so we can save them directly. But unfortunately, many shop owners in SL are thinking they are GOD and think they're the best, greatest, biggest, and most beautiful in SL. They believe that blocking users is the best, coolest, biggest, and most beautiful in SL. They believe that users should be blocked so they can no longer buy anything from the store.
Unfortunately, these shops can still be found in the product search. I think that if a shop blocks me so that I can no longer buy anything from there, then I should also have the right to block that shop from me so that I can no longer see its products.
If a shop has the right to block users, then we should also have the right to put that shop on our block list so that we no longer receive suggestions from that shop.

YES. Some stores put literally their entire inventory on the marketplace and it would be nice to hide them from my searches if they're clogging up the pages of my search results.

Jade Nova To be fair, some stores only exist on the marketplace, so of course their entire inventory will be too.
Now if we're talking about the sort of split everything up into bits and pieces and repeat for every single color option.. yeah those ones can be quite the drag to dig through..

I came to post this exact suggestion, but it's already here! We would REALLY benefit from being able to hide specific stores semi-permanently. More than NOT (storename). It should be a persistent list, like the avatar blocklist, that can be added and removed from at will. Really just bumping this so LL knows it's still being thought about.

We used to be able to do this manually with NOT (storename), but separating out storenames from the search broke that. PLEASE can we have it back in some form, so we can at least block keyword spammers when we're trying to search?

I have wanted this for so many years! It was very much needed back when copy-botters were rampant but now I want to block all those stores selling stuff that is ripped from video games etc. When I'm searching for full perm templates the results are choked with all this garbage and its all from the same dozen or so mp "stores" it seems. Lot of other reasons exist to want to stop seeing certain sellers, too.

While we have no estimate on when it may be implemented, please keep an eye on future updates. We appreciate your input and hope you continue to share your ideas to help improve Second Life. Thank you!

SL Feedback Is it a bug or just lack of feature that when you block a user inworld, you are still forced to see their store every time they sell an item that'd be in your search results? I understand if a sort of 'secondary blocklist just for stores I dislike' is possibly how the feedback request is being interpreted, and that would take time, but why does marketplace not use our already-existing blocklists?
