Using this fact, we would price our new listings to be the lowest priced on eBay, to make sure our listings appear first for shoppers looking for the lowest prices. While most shoppers choose the path of least resistance, i.e search eBay with it’s default best match sorting order, many shoppers are “dollar driven” enough to do the extra two clicks and change the default sort order to show lowest prices first.

The default order by which eBay shows search results to shoppers is called “best match”, which is basically an algorithm that predicts the relevancy of the listings to the shopper and their search query. (we discussed this in detail in a previous post about eBay SEO best practices).
