It sounds like you are not using the refinements and the auto filters. When you get a search you drill down into a category and then you pick a couple of years and then several certification services and you get it just right? And I click on save this search and email me results. And I get an email with every single
Three Cent Silver newly listed in the entire category...
Definitely I can use the CCF
ebay search with it's longer length. And definitely some sellers do and others don't use the parts of the listing tool that the filters check for. So I really need to do both. Problem with that is I end up with different CCF searches bookmarked on the 5 machines... [1st world problem, I know]
I think there's a clue in the mobile app which will sometimes tell me I was selected to many expensive filters. but instead of telling me that on the website when I try to save the search [I'm sorry Dave I can't do that] it just saves a defective search and emails me those 'results'.
