don't you hate it when you look at bin, and a seller has a complete set of 90 bowman for sale, 1 CARD AT A TIME!
then just when you go through the 3 plus pages just to find he has listed a complete set of 90 fleer. do these people understand the concept " a waste of time " ?

I know it's annoying to find all kinds of unrelated auctions but you never know what gems you may pass up by not doing so.

Usually I search for what I want first then I'll click title/description. Makes it easier for me to weed out the crap and find deals.

Do you mean like the "Iggy" guy just listed? It's extremely annoying since I do search by title and description. Every so often when he relists all his cards, I have to sift through a few hundred auctions to get to the most recent ones that aren't his. It's due to the fact he uses Beckett's description which lists Vizquel as a rookie in the set. Every card in the set has the same description, hence there are hundreds of cards unrelated to Omar that I have to sort through.

Not upset with the guy and he's not doing anything wrong. But (selfishly) it is annoyingly inconvenient.

I have done this a few hundred times. When I find what I'm looking for I even click on the sellers other stuff
just to see if there is anything else I may want. I have found some good deals in my opinion.

I've had luck with it, this ended up being free. I found a lot and sold the other 4 cards for the price of the auction.
