I collect old items made by a specific company in the UK. I do buy postcards, puzzles, pottery, old paper toys, calendars, books booklets early greetings card , prints etc. And anything at all that they produced about 120-60 years ago. I do an advanced search with some exclusions but I only get shown postcards and the same ones over and over regardless if I click on all categories or collectibles. I get the same search results as if I just searched collectibles. Colllectibles does not include books and many of the items so doing that search is not complete either. I Often see things of interest in the eBay advert that says people who’ve looked at this item also looked at such and such an item that was not in my search but that I would also have liked to be shown. I am tired of the algorithm that just lets me see a few things and want to get accurate search results in all categories. My eBay daily search is over in about ten minutes whereas before I was shown way more items of interest and so the items I buy are also way less. How do I get my old search results back and get out of this predetermined algorithm that tries to sell the same old things and not show complete results?. Thanks
