Sump'n change at the 'Bay

Post by Brad »

I have noticed that the number of listing on Ebay "Phonographs, Accessories" section seemed to be around 1700 to 1900 since the economy has been bad which is down from what I recall to be around 2500 or so listings.

This week I notice that the number of items listed is up over 6000. I see a lot thinks like light bulbs and Sam's photofacts which I haven't seen before.

Did ebay change categories, or are there some power sellers that are adding this category and spamming us?

I noticed that also on some categories I look at starting a couple days ago. I think I recall a notice from ebay that they were yet again changing the way the search would work. Last time they did that we got all kinds of things that were just about unrelated to what I was looking for, which I didn't like. I think your just seeing them tacking together more things to make it look like there is more up, but to me it makes looking worse.
