I always search my latest items to see them on Google. Well I don’t know what kind of glitch you boys created or what’s happening but this is interesting:

And here I am upset this morning because I looked up a bracelet on google organic and the description read: payment gogle checkout, checkout by amazon, paypal.

Looks very unprofessional. As a buyer if I see the payment information spelled wrong I would be cautious about buying. Not half as bad as what the op is saying. What is causing this.

I just googled this phrase:

“Because you seem to be a web crawler, there is no checkout button here. If you are not a web crawler, please email us at support@bonanza.com to inform us of…”

and came up with 260,000 PAGES!! I’d love to know what’s causing this, too.

Enter the following into Google Organic Search:

Because you seem to be a web crawler, there is no checkout button here. If you are not a web crawler, please email us at support@bonanza.com

About 264,000 results, though all are not Bonanza listings – My, my, my, what’s happening?

And then many of us wonder why our sales are going down! This could be part of the problem.

All from Bonanza. Should we contact support something seems way wrong.

Google must be tinkering with things, gearing up for their changes. Although, I would hate to think this is just a sneaky way to force peeps to use GPS rather than organic to shop.

Yikes. I checked a few of the listings mentioned above to see what you were seeing. Then I googled my latest listing. Looks fine. But sheesh.

Also interesting…

I went to My Bonanza

Clicked on Google Tools

Clicked on the number for my feed status to look at my items.

The page I arrive at looks normal but when you scroll down and hit the next button or even a page number, it sends you to a generic Google search.

@Grandmas, that’s been doing that for a while now, several weeks.

Maybe this is Googles’s method of forcing Bonanza to pay. Has anyone heard back from support?

Wow. Almost makes it sound as if we’re doing something shady.

Granted, I’ve only checked one item but I’m not seeing this at all. I looked under organic, shopping and images. Why would I not be seeing this?

EDIT: Okay, now I’ve checked more than a few and I am just not seeing it. Why would some have this and not others? And also, the way that reads to me is like it’s originating from Bonanza and not Google?

It seems like every time Bonz adds or changes a feature; something takes on a new glitch. Well maybe it is Google and not Bonz BUT if you think for 1 minute Bonz is going to pay Google for us to be searchable; i gotta bridge to sell you. Ebay is going to pay to have their members searchable FYI

… you need a bee sting. No login required to buy here! … Because you seem to be a web crawler, there is no checkout button here. If you are not a web crawler, please email us at support@bonanza.com to inform us of this error. Payment … be glad to have. If you have any question on condition, please ask.

It looks like its grabbing the top of the pages on some listings if you are not signed in

Google is currently facing a 4 billion European lawsuit for abusing its dominance. Do you think Google has turned Evil? “European Union’s top antitrust enforcer named Joaquin Almunia has outlined four potential abuses of dominance in preliminary filings. In the interview, he expressed particular concern that Google may be altering its results in a way that keeps users from having access to the best possible services, especially ones that compete with Google’s offerings”.

Now you have to wonder why this thread is not showing on main page.

I’d be so glad if they got rid of that new banner that potential buyers see.

You need a bee sting? OUCH!
