I have reported this company many times for listing violations. Nothing against Yamahas but it irritates me when they appear in my 500/4 search.

Maybe if more people reported it they would act ?

So annoying Steve! I encountered this many times whilst looking for a C90. “not C70, not C50” and so on. I too will make an official complaint if I encounter this again. I remember messaging the one seller and asking what the hell it was he was selling because he had so many models in the title.😡

SteveD CB500K0:
Here he is again.

I've always assumed that this type of search outcome is as a result of the Meta Data Algorithims if that's what they are called so if what you searched for is not an exact fit it comes up with anything that has some of the letters or numbers in it - nowt to do with e-bay programme but linked to the search engine you use.

Seems worse with Google Chrome, Firefox is a tad better - I used DuckDuckGo for a while but found it was too specific with the search parameters - so often came up with nothing. I liked Netscape back in the day.

PS I know naff all about computing so what have posted might be a load of gonads.

It’s just the standard eBay search Ted.
500/4, 500-4 or 500 4

This guy is spamming the search as anyone looking for a 350 LC or X7 250 will get this.

It’s against eBay rules.
