error in search and sort results

i have noticed errors in the results when i chose price + shipping lowest first. its happening quite often. i am on a sellers listings page . the seller has 29484 listings. when i chose price + shipping lowest first it comes back with 227 results it should be 29484  . has anyone else noticed this? it happens in general search too. and for many different sellers. 

thanks.

Re: error in search and sort results

eBay filters the results of the "Price plus shipping: lowest first" sort. This is likely intended to weed out results that are less relevant to the search, though it may not always work as intended.

 

In most cases, there should be link at the top of the results allowing the user to see all results without the "streamlining".

 

If not, try another sort method to see all results. Using "Price plus shipping: highest first" and scrolling to the end of the results and working up is one possible workaround to avoid the filtering and still be able to sort by price.

Re: error in search and sort results

thank you for your answer. i am looking at another seller with 1373 listings. when i sort by highest first i get 1373 listings. sort by lowest first i get 214 listings. as a matter of fact all other sorts yields the correct number of 1373 except the lowest first. there is no link to display all llstings.

Re: error in search and sort results

this is an error and is still happening. i am looking at a seller with 8000+ listings when i sort by price +  shipping lowest first my results are 3 out of 8000+ . this issue is major because my default is price +  shipping lowest and i think many use this choice. any else notice this error?

The search is working fine for me.
