So Music 123 dot com feels it's necessary to list every single tip opening of otto link mpc they have in inventory on ebay.
Hopefully BrasswindWoodwind and Sam Ash won't take Music 123's lead and utilize the free chance to advertise their inventory with ebay's "buy it now" option.
Worst case scenario? Would be that Ebay gets tired of the multiple listing's from various large vendors, and then decides to charge every mom and pop for listing with the buy it now option.
Ebay should rather limit all the large, multiple listing vendors, and make them organize their inventory into tip opening options of the same brand of mpc.

Yes, and I get annoyed when trumpet mouthpieces are listed that way as well, because there are only a few brands in every store but at least 50 sizes!!

I HATE IT! A few days ago, one vendor had over 4,900 items listed around the woodwind section. If they were all together, no problem but now I need to use the spacebar to move down the page and hope not to miss some private ad in the middle of the mess. Also I don't want to list anything for sale as it might get buried in the sea of mouthpieces, tuners and other stuff.

I agree, but you'e just done pretty much the same thing on this forum by cross posting the same comment in two sub-forums, which is against the forum rules. :soapbox:

On your Ebay search page, look to the column on the left. Scroll down a little from the top, passing "Show Only", "Condition", "Price" and then stop at "Seller". Click beneath it on "specify sellers". A box will appear. Check the little box that says "only show items from". The options listed in the box will become active. In the blank box beside the box that says "exclude" put in "music123" and any other seller you want to exclude. Use their correct Ebay seller names and separate them with a space. Then click the "Go" button on the bottom of the box and your search will return minus everything from the seller you chose to exclude. A friend showed me this trick and I use it now all the time.

Cool tip Ron!
Cool playing on your web site as well!
I don't think you're so crazy at all

Thanks for the kind words! Hope that trick eliminates your problem. I use my notepad and have a saved list of sellers who dump their inventory on Ebay from time to time. Then when I do a search on Ebay I just copy and paste the list into that "exclude" box. Saves me lots of time and aggravation!
