Was wondering if there's any features on Ebay where you can be alerted whenever a particular item goes up for auction using keywords.

Like let's say you wanted to be alerted whenever a new item appears containing the keywords "Senheiser" and "microphone," or "Lexicon" and "reverb" etc. etc. That kind of thing.

Appreciate the help.
 
It's called "Favorite searches"
Best thing is to run a few sample searches first so you can figure out what to tell it to exclude.
For instance if you search delta 1010, you will get that plus about 20 listings for a Karaoke CD catalog, so you search:
"delta 1010 -karaoke" to weed out the crap.
 
Yeah, the auctions can be E-mailed to you when they show up on a search. That's how I got my Radar about 5 minutes after it went on auction.
 
Sometimes the email notification is slow though, I've missed out on items of interest by relying on that alone. If there's something you really want, put it in your favorite searches and manually search for it as often as you wish.
