I love to search for something real simple and be taken to Egypt

I cannot believe what I am pulling up. Everything but what I am searching for and it was not EGYPT.

Well ya hire h1b programmers and ya get what you paid for

We have been asking just random customers that come through the store what do they think about ebay.  The answer that is coming up the most is they dont like searching for something simple and be taken to china ,egypt,india and so forth.  They say there products cheap and not worth getting.  So alot of them are going to other sites to buy items.   Best regards

I was trying to do a search for shipping supplies and I was taken to a book on Egypt. I do not care anymore about ebay.

Wait...I think I see the connection.  Ebay and Egypt both start with E!

AI knows what you are thinking.  You just didn't realize you really wanted to search for Egypt!

I recall searching for Santa figure and it brought up Victoria's Secret.

I was searching for parts for a Ford Mustang and some of the things that were included was a record album by Tennessee Ernie Ford and a letter writtien by President Gerald Ford!

Maybe they both owned Mustangs?

I am just wondering how shipping supplies had anything to do with Egypt?

King Tut Office Supplies & More!  Would you like some sand with that order?

Walk like an Egyptian?

Maybe ebay should just file SNAD and do a chargeback on their purchase of their search/AI program.  

Seems like just about everything is not functioning properly, or those things that ARE functioning as intended are quite bizarre.

I've heard Egypt is nice this time of year.

I've searched for things, and had stuff come up that was not even part of the search. I mean nothing in the title matched. I often find this with Chinese sellers. They must run some kind of plug in that somehow puts invisble charecters in the title or something.

I can search for "phone case" and it brings up shoes from China. Neither the word "phone" or "case" was in the title.
