Search Filter Changes

[dw_shepard]

What happened to the search filters? I have a lot of saved searches and now I can not find specific items the way I have been able to in the past. One filter that is now missing is searching by year. I don't want to go through hundreds of items that I am not interested in just to find the few I want to buy or bid on.

eBay is in the process of reorganizing some categories, and eliminating some. You may want to wait a bit for the dust to settle before making major changes to any saved searches.

You may have to change the category your search winds up in to be able to use the proper filters.

Thanks for responding. I mainly collect the painted hair 12" tall GI Joes from the 1960s. I don't search with a 'catagory', I search with  the 'year filter ' and also the 'size' filter. I have to search this way because there are also 3 3/4" GI Joes (produced from the 1980s thru the present) and 12" re-production GI Joes (produced from the lat 1990s and 2000s), that I do not collect. Searching this way has delivered great success for my collecting. Without the filters, I have to go through pages and pages if items trying to find the ones I want to buy or bid on.

Toys and action figures are one of the categories they are working on, as above advice wait to see if things clear a bit in a couple of days
