Hi Tom,

I've noticed you post frequently here and you're a google base
developer and consultant. I'm hoping you can shed some light or point
me to someone at Google that might be able to look into an issue I've
noticed over the years.

I've posted several issues back in December but received no response
except confirmation from another developer that the issue exists. The
original post is here:
http://groups.google.com/group/google-base-data-api/browse_thread/thread/18c700603cc89f1d/1a1a8fcc30d63c29#1a1a8fcc30d63c29

The main issues is that location based searches using a zip code no
longer work, unless you specifiy a radius around the zip code. The
following query should return results but doesn't:
http://www.google.com/base/feeds/snippets?bq=%5bitem+type%3ahousing%5d+%5blisting+type%3afor+sale%5d+%5blocation%3a%40%2290210%22%5d

The other issue has been resolved. Certain cities were not returning
any results eventhough there were listings for that city. Ventura, CA
was one of them. This is now working.

Thanks ahead,
Matt
