Perhaps you are right, but it seems most people just get pissed off.

I tried searching "Ruth" & couldn't believe all of the lots that came up.

There is a set of cards I regularly search for on eBay, and over time my list of 'exclusions' in the search bar has now grown to this (in order to JUST see the cards I'm actually searching for):

-(dean, sheffield, calender, amberstone, usaf, losers, pottery, nasa, china, buick, saucer, rosemary, rainbow, caron, granada, baby, mclaughlin, relish, salt, billy jack, steel, license plate)

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Personally I don't care what the BP is, I'll bid what I want factoring in the BP to the total cost. My issue with Goldin, besides the search functions, is the request for banking information before being able to put in bids totalling over $10k. I'm not a high roller by any stretch, but I know my limits and if I have to come back multiple times waiting to be outbid to put in placeholder bids, forget it. In today's market $10k in bids is not that much but there's no way I'm giving Goldin any of my personal financial info in order to bid. I know there are others like me as well on this subject.

It isn't about the bidders--they are irrelevant--it is about setting a higher baseline for Goldin's share of consignors' money.

I didn't find it to be that big of a deal. I did it. Take a bank statement that has some larger account on it. BLACK out any personal information like account numbers, address etc and send it in. I thought it was dumb, but also not that big of deal in the grand scheme of things.

I can see why they want it. I'm sure it is a way for them to avoid people just shilling up big money cards and then not paying. Limit the buyer pool to people that can pay. You can't just walk off the street at Christie's and bid $100,000 on a work of art. You have to be qualified.

Search engines have gotten progressively worse on almost all platforms through the years. I run a couple of my own websites with search engines built into them, that I rely on through my web hosts, and 10 years ago I would have said I was happy with them. Now I have to give hints to people for complicated workarounds to get relevant results, that may or may not work…depending on what been fiddled around with lately in the guts of the engine.

Software in general seems to be getting less and less intuitive and innovative for the common user. I suspect it has a lot to do with large corporate entities in the tech world exploiting the practice of copywriting and patenting specific lines of common code, which attempts to keep everything in house, stifles innovation, and throws a monkey wrench into already existing platforms and infrastructure.
