eBay Search problems?

[bhrfamily]

Is anyone else have problems with limited or incomplete results from eBay's Search criteria?

I have a number of items listed, but I cannot locate them even with a basic search criteria.

Neither a word search nor searching by various filter is producing results that include my items.

Hi @bhrfamily 

I was able to find your items in search. Here are your items found by searching for eBay ID:

I used keywords from titles of several if your listings and was able to find your items.

Thank you for checking.  

I don't know what is happening with my searches, but I do not find my items included in the results when I do just basic searches.

For instance, when listing an Antique Schoenhut Wooden Doll, I searched by entering key words that are included in the description, i.e., Schoenhut.  I should also see results if I use the filter option that includes such criteria as the material that the doll is made from, i.e., wood.  Or at least, I use to be able to check my listings and/or competition by using those types of specific searches . . .

Hi @bhrfamily 

If the filter is for "Wood" and you have "Wooden" in your title, that might be why it isn't coming up.

Search criteria looks for the exact words in your title. It only includes the description if you check the Include description box (located under the blue Search button).
