I am trying to find an ebay seller ID (for a ebay store)( using only one word in their name.
Can I do a search using wildcards?
For example, if I know the ebay seller ID has the word bath in it, I tried a search of: *bath*
(So, if it worked, it would match ebay seller IDs such as: bedbath, bathNThings, bath, hotbath, etc.)
But this doesn't work.
It seems like 15 years ago wild card searches don't work.
Or perhaps there is a way to do wild card searches.
Can somebody help?

If you have done business with this seller, look in your feedback received as well as Purchase history, and see if you can find the seller that way.

Search for items by seller username on the Advanced Search page must be exact username only.
eBay does not support wildcard searches. But searches for stores are a special case.
If you search for a store by keyword, eBay will find stores with that keyword in the name here:

Store search may run into problems if the seller did not put spaces between the words, though, so it may be worth trying a few variations.
