Finding the name of another eBay member

[fillyourclosetsfrommystore]

Am I crazy or what?  Years ago you could do a search with words or names for another member and it would come up with a whole page of possibilities for other members using those keywords.....do you remember that?  Can we still do that? If so, how do I get to it.......or is it gone forever like so many other things........I see the box to find a seller on the advanced search page - but you must know the EXACT name. Help.............

I found an old link that seems to work, but judging by the formatting of the results page, it hasn't been updated in a while:

Looks like this link requires the exact name also. It confirmed that the email I have is for a legitimate member but won't take me there because we have no transactions between us. I'm still hoping for the page that gives name possibilities.........Thanks anyway....appreciate it!

Sorry about that -- the text under the search indicates that it provides close matches, but it appears that that function is disabled now.

As eburton said, the close match functionality is gone.

Try google searches along the lines of: site:ebay.com/usr/ coolseller
or just site:ebay.com coolseller
