If you click on 'Advanced Search' immediately to the right of the
search entry box just above the listings (i.e. the middle of the
page), you get a page that only gives you two text entry fields, and
some dropdowns:

http://search.ebay.com/ws/search/AdvSearch?sofindtype=13

On that page, under the drop downs, there is another link "Advanced
Search", which, like the one at the top of the main page, leads to the
"full" advanced search:

http://search.ebay.com/ws/search/AdvSearch?sofocus=bs&sacat=-1&catref=C5&from=R7&nojspr=y&fsop=1&fsoo=1&fcl=3&frpp=50&sofindtype=1&pfid=

Both links are named "Advanced Search".
