Check out this site: http://www.fatfingers.com

Type in what your looking for off eBay and it finds all the items that have spelling mistakes so they are usually cheaper!

Check it out and let us know if you get any bargains!

Thank you for this link! My nephew had told me once about all the typo's in ebay, so when I am searching for things, I'll misspell the words on purpose and was always surprised that most the time when I did a search, no matter how badly I spelled the word, there'd be results. This link will take all the work out of looking for them!

Because it doesn't come up in the search for the people who know how to spell, so there are less people bidding on it.
