A few days ago, I typed in 'Thomas the Tank Engine, new'. Great, up came 4 pages of what I was looking for. Found one that I was interested in. Got interrupted, and so when I typed in the same search criteria later, there was about 20+ pages. I never did find the 'right' one again.
I can't understand why, when using the same words in search, that a completely different lot, and quantity of listings come up. And no - the rest of them weren't 'new' listings.
You are probably just seeing a realtime illustration of how they hide our listings.
The sellers in your first search had "had their turn".
It could also be that your search filters were reset without you noticing.
Given you went from 4 to 20+ pages that could well be the case.
In either event, this sort of thing really cheeses buyers off.
The site is just too complicated and glitchy.
Buyers need rat cunning and a steely resolve to get search working for them rather than against.
