Hi, I am wondering how I would write in a search that would produce the same results as the "Find Similar Items" search option.

Every item that you watch in your profile, has an option to "Search for similar items". The results are quite good with these, but sometimes the way the seller wrote their title is not condusive to the best results. I want to be able to write my own searches that would produce similar results... is there anyway to do this?

Thanks!

Thanks for the link, it will help for sure. I have tried the "_____" quotes around the title which is the way the search shows at the top of the page when you get results from the e.Bay option. The results are never the same however, so I was assuming there had to be different logic or commands that are not revealed, that allows the e.Bay search for similar items, to come up with such different results.

I will try combo's of the other Boolean commands but if anyone knows if there is something in these options that needs to be included to get the same results, that would help!

Have you tried manipulating using Boolean..
