Catergories for GI Joe/ Action Force

Post by humby248 »

Is it me or does anyone else think that its maybe time ebay split up the 12" stuff from the 3 3/4" and maybe the modern and vintage. Starting to get pissed off with wading through Dragon stuff from Hong Kong!

Good point ! There is also too much 25th stuff and ROC on there too, which I have no interest in.

Maybe we could get everyone on here to message ebay and suggest it?

Lets not forget 40th AM, it makes searching for AM or AF bloody hard sometimes.

never do a search for stuff internationally then.

you have to search 'toys and games' entirely otherwise you wind up missing stuff where some numpty put it in 'star wars' or something.

and you can filter out newer stuff. and you can filter by loose, carded, etc. look at the left side.

I never have that much time on my hands, Sundance. If you do a search for, say action man, it'll throw up results for the term as well as the category anyway.

Since eBay last updated their search feature it's become harder and harder to search for stuff IMO. Combined with numpties putting Action Man, Visionaries and everything else in there you end up wading through pages of crap that are in no way shape or form related to action force.

I'd love them to split AF into it's own category but it's hard for most people to distinguish where AF ends and GI Joe begins. But they should definitely put ROC / 25th / etc in their own seperate sub-categories.

Id prefer a simple split between 3 3/4" and 12", I wouldnt search at a lower level as on the US site people dont always fill in all category specifics.

I hear you Andy, they should have a category for modern toys only and leave them separate.
CIA got you pushing to many pencils.
