    From reading the rules it is obvious that they disapprove of punctuation; but what if your item contains it? For example I have a book titled Hornet's Nest by Patricia Cornwell. If I am sure that the vast majority of people when searching for a book or similar put in the exact title. But if GS does not allow me to use that it would screw up the search results. I certainly would not think of leaving out punctuation or changing the title.

    Maybe you could put the fully punctuated title on the first line of the description, I may be wrong but doesn't the search words include the description to?

    Titles and descriptions should be properly punctuated, but punctuation characters should not be used in a way that is not true to their meaning or superfluously.

    ...though it should be noted that however correct you make your titles and descriptions, eBid will mess them up on upload to Google.

    Hi All,

    I can see my items on Google Shopping.
    What I would would like too is that my items are also seen on Google WEB.

    How can I arrange that?
    It used to be like that when I advertised on Ebay.

    Hope to hear any suggestion.

    Thank you very much,
    LCDTVPARTSWORLD

    Have been seeing my listings on Google Shopping more consistently. Usually access listing by searching my user name. Has anyone been able to bring up listings using general keyword searches? Reason I ask is that most buyers will not be familiar with an eBid username.

    Thanks for that, my nibs are on there then but my pens or pen parts don't seem to be. I think they must have been at some stage as some of them have had lots of views. Some have been on here for about 4 months, do they stop putting them on after a certain time? My recently listed ones arnt showing up either?

    They are starting to get on there now, I guess I was just being a little impatient.
