It's not my job to report over 50 auctions for adult sized woman's kimono's when I do I search for "Vintage Barbie Wedding Gowns". I reported a few of them, but I want to get paid for reporting offenders. Or get some kind of discount on my final value fees for selling.
Ebay, can you possibly clean up the vintage barbie category with incorrect details? Some sellers have over 10 to 15 violations currently.

No adult kimonos when I searched for "Vintage Barbie Wedding Gown". Never realized Barbie had so many wedding gowns!!! 😂

Not sure about Kimono's but the search does bring up items from time to time your not looking for.

I checked again this morning, and still got several kimonos and adult size dresses.

Thank you! I did not know this....

The reason to report them is that they are putting "Barbie" in the character type, for an adult non mattel item. It's a misuse of brand name.

Yes, I report them for misuse of brand name. They are putting "barbie" under character type, for an adult size kimono and an adult size dress.

It's misuse of a brand name.

The seller is putting "BARBIE" under the character type, for an adult size non-mattel item. It's misuse of a brand name.

I don't work for Ebay. And Ebay needs to suspend those sellers who put "Barbie" in their auction descriptions, when they are selling an adult size dress or handbag. There is NO FLAW in the search function. These sellers are using a "search manipulation" and "misuse of a brand name". Oh, and thanks for entering me in the Hall of Fame. SO what should YOU be entered into for not realizing these sellers are violating the "search and browse" function??

My Point is maybe we can teach her how to search, But what about all the millions of potential customers??, Can you teach all of them??, So Results will Constantly be Different!

Will you give a URL for the search you are doing? Just copy from the browser search bar.......

Can you return and show us the item numbers for the listings you found mis-categorized this way? And are you saying that you search in the "Dolls & Bears" category for Vintage Barbie Wedding Gowns and those kimonos etc come up?

Not to brag or anything, but I felt that my tutorial on how I did my search, which did not reveal anything except Barbie Vintage Wedding Gowns, was a pretty good lesson in searching if you do not want to see anything except those. Asked OP for listing #s of the mis-categorized items and waiting for response.
