I'm furious - please check on your Google exemptions !

I've just done some searches on google products and initially all seemed well. ie I searched for vintage pyrex and I showed up ist and second page.

However when I searched for vintage pyrex tally ho (it's a pyrex pattern of which I have none in stock)

The search came back with 25 hits all from my store none of them tally ho.

I think what's happening, is that Google's finding tally ho 'cos it's in your list of categories down the left side of your template (as shown below) ........



Hence it's also finding your lovely 'Italian art glass vase' too - even though it's not even Pyrex (!) - just because it can see all 4 of the words vintage, pyrex, tally & ho in the listing's template / description.

Hope this helps

Hi,
I just tried doing as suggested and searched my shop name in quotes on google.
It bought up my own site and my ebay shop, but not my ebid shop - do I need to do something?
I thought ebid automatically loaded my shop/listings to google!
Thanks

Nobody uploads to google

I couldn't find you by shop title on Google Products Ruth but I tried some individual listing titles and they showed up so you are there somewhere !

If you have a Google store exemption you can contact support about this. Checked as banrigh suggested yesterday and found two of my four stores on Google shopping; the other two don't have exemptions, so I wasn't expecting to see them.

Best wishes for many sales to all,

I just checked mine 36/80 show up for my business items and 26/245 for personal.

With my business stuff being clothing it has no barcode but some show and others don't. A real mix so nothing obvious. Some of the tights show, others dont, some of the costumes show, some dont etc etc.
With personal, oddly the ones where it tells me to enter a barcode or they will not show up, ARE showing up despite me not giving a barcode, whereas many items which dont have a barcode etc and no flag to supply one, are not showing up.
I thought it was all a bit odd in the first place, as though people had decided that things weren't awkward enough with the economies etc and so they needed to over-complicate things with this nonsense.

Ah well, the items i have been selling have come from people finding me via other sites or existing ebid users. As has previously been posted it would be great to see ebid raising its profile, or at least trying to.

All the best

What?? is the exact Google URL for products-offering yo'all are talkin 'bout.
I tried googleproducts.com and does not work.
I do not use google at all... do not need them, just curious about all these complaints here.

Just noticed I was granted a second exemption, as of today, on my toys and games store that already had an existing exemption. Let's see if anything changes in the next few days. This is just getting too painful to deal with.
