Wasn't eBay pretty much buried by Google for a while now? It's been ages since I've seen useless eBay results when searching for stuff like info on particular consumer products.
Not completely, recently I was in the market for some very specific pull handles for a dresser that i'm building. When I googled it, 2 websites selling very expensive recreations came up, and 1 ebay auction selling a modestly priced antique version, and an etsy store. Actually, the ebay link was quite useful to me to be honest.
and for good reason. I don't need to be linked to a scammy or expired auction from ebay when I'm searching for a retail product or review.
Can you imagine going to Target or Best Buy and having some guy with a megaphone screeching at everyone about his used wares in the back of his van in the parking lot?
