Using Search Options

You can use the eBay Search options to:

• Search for an item in a specific category

• Search using your most recent searches

Searching using categories

You can search for an item in a particular category by typing the search term(s) in the Search box, then selecting the appropriate category as your Search Option. For example, if you were interested in books about tea cups, not in teacups, you could type “tea cups” in the Search box and select a books category to limit your search, so your search list would not include actual tea cups.

Searching using your most recent searches

The eBay Toolbar can help you save time searching your favorite eBay categories. The Search eBay menu contains the Recent Searches submenu, which displays the five most-recent eBay searches you've done.
