I noticed the auction was in the Collectables > Trading Cards > Other category. Could your search be limited to Sports Mem, Cards & Fan Shop > Cards > Hockey that most hockey cards are found under?

i was going to say that. don't limit your searches to the category.
 
It's nice collecting a guy named Bozak, because the only other search results are a few speakers. Also because it is short I don't think people misspell it. With Hutchinson I have to wade through a lot of other stuff. Not everyone will include Michael in the title and people misspell it occasionally.
 
It ain't so bad as long as you do it daily by newest listed. It is quite overwhelming the first time you search ITG as the only search term....but man oh man, what I have not seen that I want to cry about afterwards...
 
Yep I dubble check it and it was:| Wel now they are all fixed. But man does it add a lot of crap to the search to go through:owned:

Also dont forget that you can refine the search even more by subtracting certain words from your search. For example, I search for Bertuzzi items. However, there is a guy who sells NHL t-shirts, and he has that name (and hundreds more) written in every single auction he has. He also uses his ebay selling name in the description....stadiumstyle1. In the search I type in Bertuzzi -stadiumstyles1 and it automatically deletes all auctions with that word in it.

Another exapmle would be searching ITG patch cards (and you hate the other companies out there). Type in....ITG patch -Upper deck -UD -Paninni -Score -Toppps etc.

The only downfall with this search would be if in the description the seller types...blah blah blah "ITG patch cards are far superior to Upper Deck cards" blah blah blah....this particular card would NOT come up in your search due to "Upper Deck" being in the description.
