It happens regularly. Someone finds out how easy it is to get listed in Google product search, they submit an affiliate feed or site, list products with misleading prices, or just generally spam for popular product types. There’s got to be a way to kill those listings, right?

Absolutely. They even make it easy. Just go to base.google.com, search for the product, find the listing and click the “Report Listing” link.

You might have to do a pretty generic search, because once the attributes get triggered at the top of the page (keywords, product type, price, stores, brand, condition, mpn, tax percent, payment notes, price type, pickup, etc.) the link doesn’t show up any more. The image below shows the attributes I’m talking about.
