I think you'll find that the word "tie" is the first one in the listing-header thing AND it's listed under "ties & cravats" so I doubt there's room for misunderstanding even if you were reaching for some

We know he uses these forums, so it's possible he saw CB's post and edited the listing...

Yes the listing has been changed.

Even if its in the correct section without the word in the title it will severely effect any searches (as searches normally involve the title) so reduce any possibility of sales

Since when has a Tie needed to be sent by courier?

The word rare, especially when applied to mass produced widely available items.

Really gets my goat!

I take it you are objecting to a seller imposing P&P charges in a category where free P&P is mandatory? Easy, just hit the "Report Item" and choose the "List policy offences --> Circumvention of Ebay fees --> Excessive P&P" category. You can report up to 10 items so be sure to include the sellers other items if they are doing the same. Put a couple in your watch list and get the smug "up yours" feeling when they disappear as eBay pulls the listing but still charges the seller their fees
