So I'm searching for "10ft ethernet cable", sort by p&s, lowest first. What are the first items? Ethernet cables, 0.99-19.99, 1ft, 3ft, 5ft etc... So technically the items at the top of my search are not what should be there. This breaks search unless ebay actually starts to parse the listings in some magical manner. Bought one further down at $1.49
And that's not even an abusive use of this feature. The other week, I was searching for HDMI cables, again, p&s lowest first. What's the first 10 search items? A bunch of HDMI cables at $20 in a multi-sku listing which also include a $0.99 "HDMI ziploc baggie", making it a 0.99-20.00 listing. Ridiculous. I reported those ones. and bought from a non-multi listing at $2
Ebay, you've broken things.
Buyers, I will purposely skip multi-sku listings. It obsfucates your prices and is too often gamed.

I mean sellers, of course. And by the magic that is Google, I am apparently in the .au forums instead of the .com. Sorry, guys.
