I was just searching on Ebay and saw something odd (or maybe new, that I don't yet know about?)

http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&ht=1&query=japanese+weekend

Scroll through the results until you get to " JW top retro blue sexy japanese weekend" -- you will see that below the clickable auction title, there is another line of small black text that reads "great with the NOM jeans." How did they do this, add a subtitle to a listing?

It's a new feature that came out a few weeks ago, it cost's an extra $0.50 though.

It does NOT have any search use so what is the point? The point is, .50 more to e bay. Insanity! .50 for that? I N S A N I T Y!!!!!!!! Only the person who brings up the auction can see it and you can say the same thing in your own description.

L@@king Left and Right,,,,,Yup! I did it ONCE! Never again! Waste of MONEY!


Lead or be left in the Dust....

AND THE BEAT GOES ON,,,,,

Thanks -- I had no idea they'd started this, and it was the first I'd seen of it. I agree, 50 cents is a crazy price for it!

I thought it was nutty, too, but I just used it to add more info to the title area--for an item I'm not sure of the maker. It was worth it to add 50 cents to my fees, even though it doesn't show up in just title searches. When it sells, I'll ask the buyer if it helped.
