Take action against eBay keyword spamming

[Heronext]

Today I have just about had it with keyword spamming on eBay, which is against the Search and Browse Manipulation policy.

 

Here is an example, which appeared in a search for "Action Comics 252".

 

Here is the best way I have found to report it:

Here is another typical one (closed).

Yep, I always enjoy seeing the words not CGC 9.6/9.8 in the titles or if I search for a comic it will use the not 181, 94 without titling the comic itself. I figure most of the time though screw it... I'll simply skip over it.

I have Tourette's and I'd like it if you didn't draw attention to my specific tick *CGC IT*

 

Ahem

Here is another typical one (closed).

 

"Grade is like a CGC 8.0 with a nicer holder."

 

I would have gone with - "Sweet holder that may have been in encapsulated in someone's basement."

Interesting grading.

It would be nice if CGC put when the book was graded on the label (I know you can look it up, just sayin')

I put "Walking Dead 1" in the title of all of my auctions.

For Sale: X-Force # 1 with Poly Bag and original trading card. "Not a Walking Dead # 1 CGC 9.8 or an original 1981 Delorean from Back to the Future."

I put "Walking Dead 1" in the title of all of my auctions.

 

Best way to get your stuff out there as eBay doesn't care about the reports you send in! I tried and nothing was ever done with the items while they keep on running on eBay until end date.

My favorite is

 

"Action Comics #300 CGC 9.4 not a 9.8"

 

 

um I can see that it's not a 9.8 by looking at it...

What irritates me as much as title spamming is the "Guide Value is $xxx in NM" descriptions for a VG book being sold as such.

I just put "-(not, it)" whenever I run a search for a book

I just put "-(not, it)" whenever I run a search for a book

 

So i search (for example)

 

X-men (1,2,3,4,5) cgc (7.0,7.5.8.0,8.5) -(not) if I want to pick up any x-men 1 in cgc 7.0-8.5 and without the work "not" in the title?

 

Thanks for the tip, darkstar!
