There are certainly too many listings now to browse through them all in
one sitting. One strategy (that I often employ) is to look at all of them
ending in the current 24 hour period. With so many of the succesful bids
coming at the last minute, this isn't an unreasonable approach. I'd
rather spend 10 minutes a day searching than 70 minutes one day a week.
Of course, this is also supplemented with item-specific searches, like a
6062 in my case.
