Key word spamming
Inclusion of unrelated key word terms used in effort to gain unfair exposure for seller's auction. The seller will usually state in
title; Beautiful Brand X boots - not Brand Z.

Policy: These types of auctions are not permitted and will be ended. The listing fee will be automatically credited for that auction.

Example:
<FONT color=white>roberts grundig yacht boy retro sony helmsman sovereign revival hunter bush super vintage </FONT>

If the seller had included the unrelated brands in the title, I would tend to agree. Because they are in the body of the description and are very discreet, I rather admire the cleverness of the seller rather than condemn him.

IMHO, you're over reacting this time! (This of course is coming from an American whose airport security now confiscates fingernail clippers!)
