    When you search, you will have 4 tabs at the top. The default is to show all adverts although you can then choose to show only auction, BIN or classified adverts.

    eBay get rid of 'Pre-approved bidding' which dominated the Motors section & introduce 'Classified Ads' which is worse but at least it can be filtered out
