Thread: How do you search on Ebay?

Way back when, I used to have a custom search saved that looked something like this:

razor (solingen,sheffield,butcher,duck,robeson,boker,bar ber,elliot, etc.)

It had a ton of those 'or' names in it. I think the search function used to allow more than it does now.

Straight razor, Strait Razor, staight razor, straight razor, vintage straight razor, old straight razor, antique straight razor, makers and variations.

straight razor -zeepk -new -kriegar (etc...)

Oh.

Selecting used on the left hand column narrows the field nicely, too.

Awesome! I didn't know I could exclude items from my search.

Also, thanks to everyone else's comments. It had seemed that I was missing some of the items up for bid when I'd see them here but never saw them on the bay.

As much as I'd like to claim credit for the idea, it is in the SRP FAQ: section 5.1.2.1
Frequently Asked Questions - Straight Razor Place Wiki

I also use French and German in my searches
- Raisor
- Rasiermesser
and mis-spellings of the same.
- Rasor
- rasior
- raisermesser

Other avenues also include "Cut Throat razor" and "open razor" which are synonyms for a straight razor.
