Yup, the vagaries of searching for specific things on ebay is fun and frustrating all at once. I search HO and there's a pre and post 1970 split...so, while it does help a lot of listings, many of the cars end up in either category...then there's the "other" category...that's great fun to search. Especially when sellers don't know what they have. I was appreciative of picking up an Aurora Sand Van set (orange track and two cars) since it was listed in the larger category of Toys and Hobbies/Vintage/Other (or something like that) and they never used the word "slot car" in the title. What a blessing! It was not even in the slot car category. While that is not likely to happen for the newer 1/32 cars, for HO it can be quite fun to search.
