my mrs searches ebay all the time and looks at the minis.. funny thing is by using mini in the manufacturers drop box selection, you get different search results than if you click mini/leyland from the list in yellow .. whats really odd is that she doesnt get that obergine coloured roundie, and 3 others i get that are not leyland... so why does my search which includes the word leyland find roundies that the mini search doesnt?? also she gets a red so called cooper s that doesnt show on my search.... what the????????

Well what can I say other than welcome to eBay..

I worked out a long time ago what was causing eBays problems..

They are powered by Sun Java Technology.. That stuff never works properly at the best of times :)...

Do what I do and just do a general search in cars using "mini -chopper -bike".

that tends to bring up everything.

Searching ebay is pain, I still have problems finding parts.
I don't know how I managed to get this search result for minis (cars not parts), but it worked so well I've bookmarked it. :wink:

HA HA speedy that search misses some cars the mrs search gets with just one word...Mini and the mini /leyland search gets 2 more than that... ebay is dodgy
i like the fact ebay has mini as a manufacturer in the manufacturer drop list.... plonkers

surely its got nothing to do with ebay?

Just the keywords of the sellers?
or what sections they put it in ( i have never sold anything so i dont know how selling works?) but it were an idea :?:
