Search glitch

Have just done a search for a book: Angela's Ashes and the search results were zero.

In actual fact there are 17 books with Angela's Ashes in the title.

Anything punctuated seems to have to be in quotes.

Thanks , I didn't know that. I wonder how many potential buyers would know that?

I have just looked on the other side to check for the same. I have put in Angelas Ashes, Angelas's Ashes, 'Angelas Ashes', "Angelas Ashes and various other combinations and they all return results.

If I was looking for this item on eBid and just put in Angela's Ashes as mentioned above and did not get a result I would assume that there were not any for sale on eBid and go to the other site.

How many newcomers to this site must have done the same and not bothered to come back again as having found the item that they were looking for once on the other side would go back there again first.

This must be a major flaw in eBids search facility and must have lost sales for a lot of people. I have stopped listing on the other side at the moment due to all the changes that have been made but if I felt that I may be loosing sales due to the failings of eBids search facilities etc then I would have to consider listing there again.

Not a very good state of affairs.
