eBay BIN games - grrr!

[fitzsteve]

Anyone else getting annoyed about all the BIN games listed on eBay @silly prices, hundreds of the things

Have to thrawl through fifteen pages of games in the hope of spotting some Amiga hardware

I know there are a lot of Anti-eBay threads at the moment, of course Amibay is the way forward - but still eBay is a necessary evil if you're serachng for rare hardware...

Rant over

ps. at least the individually listed Cover Disks are gone LOL :roll:

Use "-game", it will help a lot.

- works for everything, even google. Very handy to filter out the rubbish.

Add "retro-storage" and "penfold_t_mole" and you'll never get games listed in the top 100 highest priced "Amiga" lots ever again.

Fantastic! Might want to add 'finest-computers' to that list whilst you're there.

Never knew about that, awesome.

Awesome!

Cheers Alexh

Sometimes posting a rant can help

Thanks guys, I already knew about filters though - my list grows longer all the time, -vinyl -7" -78rpm etc, etc

I definitely use the eBay filters. Whenever I see anyone with a LOL Price BIN I just add them to my search filter. I've got quite a few sellers in that filter now.

Alas! It's a shame you can't forcibly add these search parameters to all your listings. I guess eBay don't see any reason to allow you to exclude sellers (why would they? Not really in their interests)

also to add to fitzsteves point, have a look at all the books listed recently on the AU eBay... what are they??? real publications? i have never seen so many books about Amiga...and they are all new editions too.
