AuctionSlanguage™ is the first and only searchable database organized by category of acronyms, abbreviations, and initialisms that sellers use in their listings to describe products they are trying to sell on online auction sites.  A wide range of these acronyms and abbreviations have developed over time and many categories have their own established language (or slanguage as we call it).  At times you need to be a cryptologist to decipher all the codes they use!  They do this because of human laziness, lack of space in the listing titles, and to make their listings easier to find by others by using common acronyms and abbreviations that may be associated with a particular product or category. You truly need a good comprehensive source to help you demystify the listings.  AuctionSlanguage is that source, it is the largest human edited database around.

AuctionSlanguage™ is a resource designed to be educational, informative, and to help buyers decode listing titles, subtitles, and descriptions.  To do this, it provides the largest human edited searchable database of auction slang on the internet that covers hundreds of categories.  This database represents a compilation of acronyms, abbreviations, and initialisms that have been provided by members of the online auction community themselves (buyers, sellers, and collectors), researching the web, and by looking through the listings.  All entries have been researched to verify their authenticity and meaning.
