Searching ebay (for sellers)

Nazitf

I am trying to decipher how ebay basic search works. Clearly it looks to match the keywords in the title of a listing with that entered in the search field. However I have noticed that some listings appear in the search results despite lacking the keywords in their title that were searched.

I have now concluded that ebay must be also searching the item specific fields however unfortunately it does not seem to search all of the item specific fields!! In my few experimental searches, I have noticed that the values of the first two fields are used to return the search results. Can anyone add to this information? What other item specific fields does ebay include in its search field.

This will surely help sellers since there would be no point in repeating the same keywords in your title as that chosen in the item specific field.
