Very cool!

To increase the signal/noise ratio, I'd love to specify that I'm looking for a product, and not accessories for a product. For example, I just searched for a camera I'm looking to buy. The first large set of results were accessories for that camera, and since they're cheaper than the camera itself, they showed up first.

Great start!

Yeah, this is one of the problems that we've been dealing with for a while, and we're still not sure how to really go about eliminating product accessories when the user is simply looking for that product.

Unfortunately, this comes up whenever you search websites like Craigslist or eBay, so without getting really creative, there's not a whole lot we can do to completely get rid of this problem.

I'm glad we were able to do it a little bit with cars and car parts.

Thanks for your feedback!

My camera test search query ended up getting good results after modifying it to "powershot -battery -cable -case -protector -charger -adapter"

Would it work to attach a "accessory word blacklist" to the end of every search query that does not explicitly have one of the accessory words in it?

I think we're going to have a list of common words found in the results that you can uncheck to remove the irrelevant results.

I had the same thing with accessories. It would be very useful if you could provide a button to remove an entry from the list and then all similar entries are automatically removed as well.

Yea I noticed that, but that's because the price range set by the slider starts at '0' so it shows the cheapest products first which would most usually be accessories or other related items but NOT the product itself.
