I don't know that it is deceptive - it's more annoying than anything. I think their algorithms can't account for the specificity of details in a listing and probably just search for 1949 Bowman Reynolds in the case, and show me something way different in condition / grade that what I was looking at.

What he said, I looked at one of those cheap Green Cobbs the other day just to examine the picture and hone my skills at spotting fakes when I got an email an hr later saying I had looked at a $3500 Cobb that was now discounted by $600. I think the system has to cover too many different types of products to ever be super specific.
