I know eBay updated the search feature with custom skus to exact match. There are a lot of sellers who are upset about this. We use the sku to look up multiple items that may be part of a larger lot or a certain shelf number etc... So when we can not search by a partial sku it really hinders work flow. I am hoping someone at eBay could do something about this issue.

I can see where that may be a problem. For me I crafted my SKU's so when sorted, which still works, similar items are grouped together and those groups are also sorted into sub groups. This allows me to quickly edit groups of items at a time or check inventory levels.
Best you can do now is use the comment option on the page to send ebay a notice of your problem.

Same problem - posed this question in seller tools a few months back with no replies.

Yeah, it's terrible @rbcycleautoparts @hdod7267 .
Click the ? icon on the bottom right corner of almost any eBay page and that will trigger the option to file a submit feedback to eBay product developers. Screenshots here.
