It should be noted , for those that don't know yet, This practice is known as "keyword spamming" and is against eBays rules. They will pull the auction if anyone complains. BTW , four years ago I had a competing seller complain that I was "spamming" and they pulled my tire auctions, It took many emails to the "E-stone cops" to have this rectified. They were wrong and finally allowed my tires back on verbatum. The point is one bad apple can cause a seller alot of grief if they know how to manipulate the rules. I just wish eBay was as active in persuing feedback abuse.
