EBay listing spam

Hi Steve,
I've also got fed up with this stuff when searching, so now it's New Year - no resolutions from me except not putting up with things we might be able to change, we could all on this forum report this particular spammer.  Would you want to start a Moderator post to encourage this?

Here he is again.



I’ve reported him (again)

On Yahoo Japan auctions it's done all of the time Steve (no eBay in Japan) . They seem to just  list every model from the same era. So if it's a CB72 part they will list CB92,CB72, CB160. CB175 etc and it's totally confusing plus they list everything as 'junk' even though a part is in super condition visually. I guess to protect their honour if there is a cock-up in the listing or a buyer claims it is not as described. Not sure why a Yam 2-stroke would be described as a 500 4 though?

EBay call it “keyword spamming” and it’s against their rules.

Ebay is good at these issues. When searching for CB400F spares on Ebay I often see bits for the 1990 CB400F NC27 among the offerings, some people are bound to end up with the wrong thing.
But I've had a Suzuki GT380 in the past and I did some curiosity searching, who would have thought that a pair of chain adjuster supports could cost £999.99 ?  :o https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/393784855589
I did a google search for the same thing and sanity returned, the same item from the same source gave a price of  £35.00. I think Classic Bike Fasters need to talk to Ebay!  ;D
