Savy eBay help please

XanaduNow

Is there any way to search in multiple categories? I'm tired of searching for a particular item 3 times because it could be in a few different categories.

For instance, say I wanted to search for "Michael Jordan" in both Basketball cards and Baseball cards. Is there a way to do it in just one search or do you have to do two searches?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

Steve,

Yeah, unfortunately, that's what I've been relegated to do. The problem with that is then you get everything on eBay in 2 dozen different categories that has Michael Jordan in it. So I still have to click on the Baseball card category and then back out of it and click on the basketball category. Quite a pain in the ass. It gets even worse when you want to search 4 or 5 different caegories for an item.

you could try using the - sign

ie jordan -autograph -golf -cigars

Jordan is probably too popular too allow you to search efficiently. If you know a particular card #, then you could use "jordan 57" or the like.

Instead of searching in Baseball cards, Basketball cards, etc, just go up one level and search in all Cards.

Sorry guys. I guess I should've been more specific. I just used Jordan as an example. I've been searching for vintage golf/boxing cards and they're in about 3 different categories (Sports Mem, Cards, Fan Shop being just one). So yeah, I can type it into the search for All Categories but then I get clogged up with thousands of other items I'm not interested in.

I was just wondering if there was a way to pick out multiple specific categories and perform a search. Doesn't look good though.

Thanks for all the input guys!
