.. cause it seems I don't. I was looking for a tool to clean the inside of copper pipe solder fittings prior to soldering so in the UK Ebay site I put the search term 'pipe fitting cleaner' and got 216 hits, as shown in the first picture, ordered by lowest cost + pp.
It occured to me that some vendors may describe them as wire brushes so I expanded the search using 'pipe fitting (brush,cleaner)' to catch titles including brush OR cleaner. But now it only gets 46 matches as shown in the second picture.
What is going on? This usually worked before for me although I must admit I have often had problems with items going missing, unexpectedly, as I try to narrow the search down.
[EDIT] Just noticed that the three out of four items that are missing from the 2nd search have 'pipe' and 'cleaner' but not 'fitting' in the title so it looks like adding the brackets made the search more exacting and rejected any items not including 'fitting'. Damn! Why do search engines have to be so hard requiring so much experimentation to discover the unexpected subleties. Is this why TIN beats us to all the good stuff?
At least Ebay's search still seems to be way better than Windows 10's
