The original owner cannot unblock a phone.
As far as i know, nobody can. Its like a car, once its been written off theres no going back.
Yes they can depending on the reason for the block. I have bought a phone in the past that became blocked. Seller has genuinely reported the phone as lost but then found the phone later and sold it to me. As he hadnt done an insurance claim on it it was still legally his and the network unblocked it when he spoke to them. I doubt they would unblock it if he hadnt paid a bill or it was subject to an insurance claim.
Best hing to do in this case is talk to the seller they may refund you.

Did he tell you that before you bought it ? i wouldnt have gone anywhere near it if he told me it had been blocked previously.
