Why when I type in a single word in classified search does it bring up not only what I typed in, but also other ads that do not have the word I typed in Anywhere in their title,description,or in other ads that the poster has? |

A common search for me is "sea blue" (I need a decklid). What search pulls is any word with S-E-A in a string- so it naturally brings up 'seats' that are also described as blue. Perhaps your simple word is alphabetically contained in another? _________________

Yes, this is true as well.
If you search on tin you can see this in action - it pulls up a lot of "weird" stuff but you will see the letters tin in the title. _________________ How to Post Photos
