    I hate it when they use "not" in the title but I more recent one I've seen is where they use the word "No" in the title after a brand name eg.I found this one when I was looking for some "Per una" jeans.

    PER UNA" NO" DOROTHY PERKINSJEANS SIZE 16R NOT NEXT

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5355716996


    Hmmmnn were they "Per una" or "Dorothy perkins"??? The auction description didn't give any clue so I emailed the seller to ask which brand they actually were and they were Dorothy Perkins!

    Does keyword spamming work in reverse? eg. 'NOT Next, Gap, Benetton, etc'. That really p*sses me off... :mad:

    Yeah, even though they've put the word "not" they are still keyword spamming.

    I personally hate it. There's enough rubbish on eBay to get through as it is. If i search for "Millen" for eg i end up with allsorts of rubbish that i don't want! I mean if i wanted a "Topshop" or a "Warehouse" item i would search for that! (try it and see!)

    Here's another i hate [email="L@@K"]L@@K[/email]. What a waste. As if anyone is going to search for that!

    LOL I've actually used that when I first sold something and coudn't think of anything else to write in the title.I think the only time it may have any effect is if people are browsing individual sections rather than searching by keyword.
