You have given us absolutely no useful information to work with.
We don't know what search criteria you are using.
We don't know what item you are searching for.
We don't know what sort you have chosen for the results.
For all we know, those "5 pages of irrelevant junk" could be a match for the search criteria and it might be perfectly reasonable for them to be there. It could also be that your search terms are so broad they could not possibly return meaningful results.
If you are looking for an explanation or advice, you really need to come back and give us better information.
Otherwise, the answer to "Why is my listing on page 5?" is "because that's where it is".
