https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Buying/What-has-RUINED-eBay-for-you-and-how-would-you-improve-it/m-p/7913164#M78329 <P>Beside the obvious things like simple delivery and ridiculously long holding times for funds in certain circumstances (we all know why) it really is the search engine for me. Heavily agree that search filters immediately being reset to what eBay wants you to use is beyond annoying, also STILL no ability to filter out collection in person only listings is insane to me. Also wish they would start flagging listings that have "Spares and Repairs" "Faulty" "Parts Only" and other similar phrasings in the title/description that haven't added the proper "For Parts Only" category tag to this listing. Also wish they would add a "Spares and Repairs", "Untested" and other similar category tags for listings too. Also fix the issue of blatantly not including relevent search results, often times them being the only listings of the exact thing I'm specifically searching for, in order to push irrelevant *bleep* that I'm intentionally trying to avoid closer to the top of the search results. Just because someone paid to boost their listing or it's a higher priced listing (almost always comically overpriced ones as opposed to being a higher value item too) doesn't mean I'm now magically going to no longer want the actual thing I'm searching for and instead decide to buy a completely different thing instead. Main thing for me though is the lack of ability to filter out collection in person only search results (used to be a Chrome extension that did it but it recently stopped working) and requiring people to properly tag things as "For Parts Only", "Spares and Repairs", "Untested" ect. Those are the 2 main reasons why I've completely given up on trying to find anything on eBay&nbsp;</P> Sun, 17 Aug 2025 05:20:20 GMT lhgau97 2025-08-17T05:20:20Z
