    I got 125 listings to come up for you (both under Allen &
    Ginters as well as Allen & Ginter) - (This was under the US Site).
    I got 71 listings for Allen & Ginter (UK Site - not your listings) - but 0 for Allen & Ginters (UK Site).
    I got 71 listings for Allen & Ginter (Australian Site - not your listings) - but 0 for Allen & Ginters (Australian Site).

    SORRY CORRECTION (I've corrected the UK result)

    Bad search results = lower sales.

    I think you'll find that any searches you perform via your 'Auctions I'm Currently Running' tab, will need to be exact matches.

    ie: You would need to search them as Allen & Ginters since that is how they are spelled in your actual titles
    .

    By contrast in a 'normal' item search (as done by a buyer), you'll find that both 'ginter' and 'ginters' are accepted by that particular search engine.
