mom2Hh Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 is there a way to search for exactly what you want in the for sale section? putting terms in quotes doesn't seem to make a difference. for example a search for prairie primer comes up with all kinds of "primers"- latin primers, math primers, etc. and it just takes so long to look through all the listings.

Kathryn Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 In the case of prairie primer, I'd search for just prairie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
besroma Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 In the case of prairie primer, I'd search for just prairie. I agree. I search for the most unique term in the title. Also, acronyms do not work, so it is hard to find IEW SWI-A unless the seller spelled out part of it in the body of the ad, so in that case I usually search for "excellence," then search for "instruction." Also, sometimes I use Google (+"well trained mind" +"swi-a" +FS). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfeusse Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 not that I know of...and this totally frustrates me too. I really wish there was a way to search for EXACTLY what you want. I would really like it if they could do something about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daughterofsarah77 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I agree. I feel like I may be completely missing out on things I am looking for. I'll come across something else I was looking for while doing a search for something else :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy101 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 This frustrates me too. For that matter, I wish any sale post was deleted after 3 months. If it sold, it doesn't need to still be there, if it didn't, they can repost it. It would make searching so much easier if all the content was at least somewhat current.
