Re: [photo-3d] Stereo on eBay

In a utopian world, this would be great!  However, we're far from that
in eBay.  So, IMHO, drilling down to Photo & Electronics->Photo
Equipment and then searching for "stereo" nets me the greatest number of
hits for stereophotographic paraphenalia(sp?).  Recently a number of
ePhoto cameras have taken over the Photo Equipment section and, because
they have a "stereo mini jack", they show up in my search.  This is why
I'll use the search phrase "stereo -jack" or "stereo -ephoto"

Of course, if George is selling 20 Stereo Realists previously owned by
"Jack", my search criteria might miss the entry.  

One recommendation I have though is once you hit on a search combination
that produces a satisfactory result, bookmark that search results page. 
Then you can execute the search time and time again simply by using the
bookmark.

HTH,
Ron
