Its bad here too, especially google shopping. Most of my store items are googling better than eBay in organic. eBay and the major players are dominating google base, mine show up and do look better since they actually have a description instead of BS link/text info like the ones from eBay. You would think with all their resources they could clean that up, especially when a podunk like myself has better looking google shopping listings.

Any eBay seller shouldn't wait for eBay to list their items on Google Base but should use Google Base Store Connector and upload them themselves?

The reason?
If you upload them yourself with Google Base Store Connector the program will add the little ?refid=store link to all of the links.
This means that if anyone who then clicks on your item through Google Product Search then buys it gives you a store referral credit (a 75% credit on your Final Value Fees).

More info here:

And Google Base Store Connector can be found here:

It must be using its resources on the US site as, like I said I was up to a hundred by time I was done and I never seen a single alternative on the UK product search, other than overstock began turning up around ninety.

Maybe the UK members are not using the download feature ebid have
