(...) It could be considered that, but I don't find this type of thing of any great importance. Ebay allows a certain number of characters for the auction title and this seller was just a bit creative. What I want to know from you is WHY are you (...)

(...) The case of the bootleg-clone seller may be instructive here. I don't know why he was suspended/de-registered, but given that we know TLC members read LUGNET off and on, is it at all possible that when we flag these questionable uses of (...)

(...) Well, that one I'll concede. I suppose it's possible that there are indeed "Legos" in the lot, but you're right that the description should reflect that. (...)

(...) Yes, yes, yes, but what about this: (URL) title is 70's Sears Brix Blox 900 Piece Set Lego Legos lego is not mentioned in the description. This is annyoing, and is keyword spamming. Were do we complain about this? John Kruer (22 years ago, 27-May-02, to lugnet.market.services)

Would this count as keyword spamming? (URL) is 5382, aquazone accesory pack. The title is Lego 5382 Aquazone Minifigs Town City Space obviesly this has nothing to do with town, city, or space. I found it on a search for 'lego space.'He does not (...) (22 years ago, 27-May-02, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) But it's not "key word spamming," since the product is, after all, "LEGO-compatible," and that's one of its intended selling points.
