Already posted similar on u.p.c.ebay, but not much help really, so thought I'd try you lot. I have two bikes up for auction, item numbers in my sig. The Fantic lists and searches fine, the Beamish doesn't. When searched for by the item number only it lists fine, but when searched for by suzuki or beamish etc it won't list and doesn't show when someone clicks the 'see my other auctions' link. Strangely it apparently searches and displays fine on ebay.de, so I guess it's a purely ebay.uk thing. Anyone any clue what I can do to sort it out? I've already took the auction down once and re-listed it, I've also emailed ebay who've kindly sent a form email saying they've received my question and they'll get back to me ... I don't hold much hope out. -- Paul ... (8(|) Homer Rules ..... Doh !!! Fantic 307 Trials on ebay 4558564657 Beamish 250 Trials on ebay 4558878921

YTC449 came up with the following;: Tried it, no go. What browser? I've used IE, Deepnet Explorer, Mozilla and all come up with nothing for a search or for 'see my other crap' from the Fantic listing. -- Paul ... (8(|) Homer Rules ..... Doh !!!

Salad Dodger came up with the following;: hmmm. The Fantic was listed first, separately from the Beamish. Then I went to do a 'sell a similar item' and changed everything. Could be something with that ... But when we found we couldn't get it in a 'beamish' search, we cancelled the item and re-listed separately and it still doesn't work. hmmm. -- Paul ...

Type 'Beamish' in the search box and its there. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=9808&item=45588 78921&rd=1
Paul - xxx came up with the following;: In the original listing was the word 'tits', describing the brand new rear tyre and that it still had tits on it ... which ebay say is a no-no word and would cause the item to not show in a search.. Good grief. Why don't they just flag it up when the item is submitted for sale? -- Paul ... (8(|) Homer Rules ..... Doh !!! Fantic 307 Trials on ebay 4558564657 Beamish 250 Trials on ebay 4558878921

BORG came up with the following;: Yup, we just got an email from ebay saying "I have looked at your item description and can see that it contains one or more questionable words. Our system will not index items for search that have inappropriate language in them. These words in your auction prevent this indexing" So we revised the description a few minutes ago. Thanks anyway. Bastards still accepted the fucking sale though. Why don't they just red mark it or something similar when it's being described or submitted. Ah well, it's caused me mucho frigging grief these past couple of days ... -- Paul ... (8(|) Homer Rules ..... Doh !!! Fantic 307 Trials on ebay 4558564657 Beamish 250 Trials on ebay 4558878921

The Older Gentleman came up with the following;: 'tit' is apparently OK, it's when the plural 'tits' is used that it becomes rude. The mind boggles at the levels of political correctness involved that decides these things. Apparently someone in Germany, ebay.de, had no problem listing, searching etc so it appears we brits need looking after. -- Paul ... (8(|) Homer Rules ..... Doh !!!
