Default Re: eBay

I've had it get stuck in searching only 'eBay motors' even when you return to 'My eBay' it just doesn't want to go back to the 'whole' search thing? .

I've also never understood why when you use the back button after a search, sometimes the previous search stays in the box and sometimes it doesn't? . I like it to stay so I can toss a blank in between and search again as two words instead of one or try w/ spelling mistakes....whatever. .
I know it's better to use the brackets and variations w/ commas but sometimes like the lazy way so you can use varitions as you think of them? .

Simple trick when you know but the best thing I ever learned was always to use the asterick at the end of each word so you can catch plurals etc. . Even if you just start the word and use the asterick so you can catch spelling variations it works great! . Often this way is best when you're searching using a second word too so the results aren't too many and you only have to search once. .

When did they add the feature of just typing a known item number into the regular seach box instead of the old way of searching by item number....it's great now! .
