Pretty sure it's regressed. I think there used to be a bunch more filters you could do based on a product category that I think went away as they added more products.

Real annoying when you want like a 4 GB memory card and it splits up your input of "4 GB" into "4", "GB" and then shows you everything with a "4" or a "GB" in it...

I'm still not convinced it's not a social experiment to find out just how much it will take to make users give up and go away.

Or the size filter on clothes. Great, I can filter by size to only see pants that'll fit me. Wow, nice selection, let's open this one. Ohh... it has that size in general but it isn't available. I've come this to just writing a scraper, getting all the data and then filtering it properly just so I can buy some pants.
