Google has an age filter that puts older sites and DMOZ listed sites at the first page where most people search. For that reason, I don't use google go find commercial products. They'll simply give me 10 year old websties that have higher prices than the up-and-coming competition and more traffic because of their google first page listing...so they don't have to offer the lowest price. Yahoo and MSN find specials and promos from any website it seems regardless of age. That does allow for some spam sites to find their way onto the first page, but it also give you established retailers who are running special promos. I think that google is vulnerable because once it become common knowledge to the average consumer that google does the sandbox thing and that the newer websites with better prices are not listed....those consumers will flock to yahoo and msn seach. And lets face it, it's the commercial listings with high PPC ads that fuels googles business.
For non commercial listings however I like google. I don't want to find spam websites when I'm searching for information.
