Interesting thing I noticed about Taylors and E-bay

When you click on Taylor in the acoustic section a whole bunch of Breedlove's come up as well. They don't have the Taylor name in the title or in the ad (at least the one ad I opened). Anybody know why? I mean, I know Larry B. works for Taylor, but I can't see any connection with this and E-bay.

I have noticed that a lot of defined catagories on e-bay have a few missmatched entrys I always assumed it was some kind of a mass marketing ploy.More pictures and listings infront of potential customers

There is no Breedlove category so sellers list their high end guitars under Taylor knowing folks are there browsing for high end guitars. Plenty of people browsing in the Taylor category!

I used to sell golf clubs at the local country club. Taylor Made clubs were popular, and darn good in terms of performance and quality IMO. Hmm, must be something about the name Taylor that inflicts quality.
