eBay said it will enhance its Search feature to bring up plural versions of a singular word, or vice versa, in search results. For example, a search on the keyword "bike" would return results with the word "bike" and "bikes" in the listing. eBay Search will also return alternate spellings of certain words, for example, "ax" would return results for "ax" and "axe." To prevent Search from returning the expanded results, users can put keywords in quotation marks. More information about eBay Search is found online at:

eBay also said all eBay Store sellers will start to receive a monthly "Seller Report" outlining their sales activity. eBay Stores ("http://www.stores.ebay.com": http://www.stores.ebay.com) allow sellers to list fixed price items on eBay. Previously, only Anchor and Featured Stores received these reports. Anchor and Featured Stores will still have the added benefit of receiving eBay marketplace performance data so they can track their sales against other sellers in the same eBay categories.
