    Cool Ebid fix the Search engine!!

    Ebid should be just as busy as Ebay by now...but its not...Why is that??
    A search engine that doesnt show results...seems disorganized and hard to navigate...people get frustrated and leave. Reorganize the Search engine in here and this place would outshine Ebay sooner then you think.

    Default Agreed - search very difficult & unfriendly

    I am looking around at other auction sites besides feebay and cannot find a way to search by location on ebid. I like to find auctions close to where I live, there is no way to do that here. There is no advanced search options on ebid's home page, just a bunch of categories and a small word search window. Searching auctions is THE major key for on-line auction sites, how else are we going to get around? ebid's search is totally inadequate and amateurish, not to mention frustrating. Just not worth the time, I'm gone.

    Perform your initial search using the standard search window and then look at the results page to refine the results. There is a panel of options on the right hand side which also allows you to search by country.

    The biggest problem that eBid suffers from is that people are used to using Feebay's systems and expect the same here. Well, this isn't Feebay and it will take a little while to get used to the differences, but most people find that it is worth the time to do so.
