Using Search Options
You can use the eBay Search options to:
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.
