Looks good that Being able to sort (price/location etc) would be a good addition to when you get round to it

Edit: someone round the corner is selling a next catalogue

Price is less important really because something might still be a bargain even if its a few hundred quid.

Location they're all under 10 miles anyway so no great shakes if it's 5 or 7, that measurement by Ebay isn't accurate anyway because it's a crow flies thing between the two codes, there's no additional offsets for roads and rivers.

Hence why I keep getting offered stuff on the Wirral which will cost me £1.40 in the tunnel each way. It's not perfect.

Gotcha

Ending times don't include days on my list of results. I.e things say 6 hours on CS but then go to ebay and its 1 day 6 hours.

watching a few things now though and will probably be trawling through it this morning instead of working

Edit: that was quick

Could you stick a drop down at the top to select the category. Mine just shows me a load of shite I'm not interested in, if I coukd choose car accesories etc that would be epic!

Had a quick swatch around the car parts categories but it's all coil packs and brake pads on the Buy It Now, like a million pages of them.

Need to sort out some search strings for those categories.

Can't you set to auction only, under 25 miles, time ending under 1 day? Maybe have a few buttons at the top with pre confuigured options, one for corsa, one for all cars one for parts etc etc

There's no category preference at all in that, its just local items with no postage. The idea is that you get cheap stuff because the rest of the country doesn't bid.
