Maybe someone can explain this to me - searches on phone vs computer

I buy and sell CD's and often when I do a search on my phone as to whether I should by the CD it shows me higher prices than when I search on the computer.  For example:  

 

On my phone search:  lowest price with shipping.

Another reason not to buy on the phone?

I am not buying on the phone but am looking as to whether I should buy for resale.   Quite a difference in the prices.  How do I get my listings to show up on the phone?

My guess is that you used your phone's camera to scan the UPC when you searched on the phone. 

 

Not all listings have the UPC typed in, as it is only required on 'Brand New' items. Additionally, some media can have multiple different releases with different UPCs. To the average buyer, there is no difference between the releases, but if you scan the UPC of a CD or DVD, you will only get the copies tied to that UPC.

 

I just scanned a random movie I have in front of me, and scanning the UPC only brings up 6 results, while manually typing in the name brings up 28. 

 

The solution would be to manually type in the keywords on your phone, instead of using the UPC.
