try the last 7 years.. its just keeps getting worse.
EBAY could help by adding a boolean search with NOT aka exclude
so
search for Suzuki Savage
exclude title = "light"
exclude seller = "spammerguy"
exclude title = "and honda and yamaha"
as to pricing.. not much we can do about that.. there is now a "national price.. so we all compete in that market. Of course we all get to sell there to.
on a tangent
I like guns and use gunbroke to find my favorite brand (Dan Wesson) . Just about no one knows or cares about htem doen here, so i use to get them on the cheap. But a local pawn shop figured it out. Now all DW from like 5 shops across state now come to his shop and he puts them up on gunbroker. The margin is pretty big. A $200 gun (pawned at $100) can fetch $500 to $900 nationally. And no he wont sell me a gun sent to him by another shop as they want risk of the auctin to drive the price up.
Hello Pine, you on the Danwessonforum? Cheers, Nigel
