The only thing I did like about the search was, if I remember correctly, it was available whether signed in or not, whereas the search in the menu at the top is only available if you are signed in.

Google kicked us out of their ad network saying the search bar was too close to the ad banner, so I was asked to remove the search bar so we could have Google reanalyze the site. We rely on that ad revenue to help keep the site running as sponsorship and charter memberships are no longer sufficient to keep us afloat.
I tested the ebay and Amazon search boxes and they work fine. They do open in new tabs so if you have an overzealous pop-up or script blocker that could explain why they're not functioning for you.
