Chris,
While you have honorable intentions in trying to protect other sellers, I
believe that the practice of warning other sellers about a bidder is against
Ebay policy. Check out the link below

PS, I have no stake in Ebay, just sharing some information I gathered after
a few problems with bidders myself.
