OT - Ebay help
I need a little help. The Search on Ebay is not working correctly, or like
it used to, for me. I'd appreciate someone else try it before I e-mail them that it's an Ebay problem. It could be my problem. Go to http://motors.listings.ebay.com/Ford...istingItemList Fill in the search criteria with the following: 1968 -automatic Put a check in the "Search title and description" box Click Search No error appears, but some of the cars are not 1968 and most of the cars have automatic transmissions when I do it. Let me know what you find. Thanks! -- John ThunderSnake #59 |

I've seen something like that in other eBay searches. It looks like the '-automatic' filter works if the word 'automatic' appears in the text description written by the seller. If it's in the eBay generated Item Specifics frame - the frame that has mileage, eng, trans, VIN, warranty, title, etc. - is doesn't get filtered. ....and I have checked the 'search title and description' box. The non-1968 cars still had 1968 somewhere. DP Pics of the cars: http://tinyurl.com/d2q9u |

Thanks. I think I'll contact ebay and see if they can improve it. I doubt it, but if one doesn't throw a rock into the apple, then it is certain one does not get apples. -- John ThunderSnake #59 |
