    I always search on Ebay using "Ford Maverick" instead of just "Maverick" doing this lessens the search result quite a bit. Then once I have the search results I list them from highest to lowest.... Doing it this way work pretty well for me. There is still some "junk" in there that I don't really want/need to look at and a handful of items that have 10-20 duplicates like brake rotors and radiators....

    Its basically a flea market full of crap now. I have a Maverick search with a list of sellers ommited from search. Gets it down to about 7 pages of real items.

    Every time I'm on, I get three pages of shims, and cotterpins. But I allways slow down a bit to ponder the turbo kits that somehow fit every car I own...:hmmm:

    It helps a lot to put -fits in your search line. That gets rid of a bunch of useless stuff. :thumbs2:

    I hate the new ebay .......... :(
