Multiple searches (over 50!) from GB GROUP-EBAY

Hi
I checked out my updated Clearscore today and I noticed multiple entries for GB GROUP-EBAY starting from July going up to this month.
For instance:
August
37 searches
And another 13 (so far) this month.
Any idea what they are playing at - these come under the Quotation and personal searches field.
As far as I know Ebay do not offer credit, and even if they did, I do not want it, and never applied for it. I use Paypal to pay for stuff like 99% of peole there..
The multiple searches appear excessive, and not consented to by me. I know these are soft searches, but I object to the abuse on principle.
Anyone else seen this?

I did google this before hand - however while I can find mention of ad hoc searches I do not see much about multiple searches per day. That is the nub of my question - I can assure you if I know how to post on forums, I know how to google ;(0 -

People posting google links with no discussion, IMHO are rarely trying to help.
It's passive aggressive - basically, saying 'bog off and google'0 -
