When ebay searching...

[ASTROBURN]

When i do my ebay searching, i generally type in "Bagwell", and search the newly listed items. If i dont limit my searching to sports cards, then i find random things appear. Such as:

TBag Bagwell items from prison break
Romance Novels by Stella Bagwell
Some ATV accessories called Bagwell
Mandy Bagwell cookware and dishes
Buff Bagwell wcw stuff
Shaune Bagwell pictures
Wendy Bagwell gospel records - actual vinyl!

how do you guys do your searches, and what random items pop up in your search results?

For some reason, when I search for "rusty kuntz" and "dick pole", I get ***** pics.

Bagwell -(stella,mandy,wendy,atv)

eBay has really jammed up my searches with the removal of the wildcard and the completely ridiculous accompanying character limit.

Used to search:
Greg Bird (auto*,au)

but now I have to be inclusive:
Greg Bird (auto,au,autograph,autographs,autographed)

f'n terrible on eBay's part. I include the others to find those auctions that people randomly title, though now I'm sure I miss a bunch of them.

And I loved Prison Break.

I have to be pretty general in my searches now otherwise I know I miss stuff. I know I still do but I searching the 50 different terms someone could use for one card or set is pretty ridiculous.

I usually do the year. ie. 1996 and Bernie, not to many Bernie's so I do it by year.

I try to be general, but I do use sites like fatfingers.com to find things I may have missed due to spelling errors, etc. Like many people on this board, I have an addiction to eBay that I satiate about 1-2 times a day. I don't miss much

I will sometimes check for Bagwell with one L or three L's. not too often does anything pop up though.

And i do appreciate the ebay bar we have at the top of fcb. Ive bid on a few from there.

In my Cirillo searches I usually see a lot Military truck equipment/parts, a couple of books on handguns and conducting stakeouts, Italian opera dvds, and the occasional vintage photograph of some court judge.

Dale Sveum mostly just returns results of some guy trying to sell his RARE 1988 Donruss set for $100
