- StevieJanowski, on 04/02/2009, -1/+59I got a pair of Nuke shoes one time and thought it was a misspelling, nope they were really Nukes

- diggtochina, on 05/30/2008, -0/+17I was a dumbass once and misspelled an item on ebay.. my item sold for 50 bucks, items spelled correctly sold for 150.

- Doomsan, on 05/30/2008, -1/+13Shh! don't digg it, let's keep the secret!
- bcos, on 05/30/2008, -1/+12I don't know if I'd trust a seller that didn't even think to check over their spelling.
- duggdowncatisad, on 05/30/2008, -0/+9The first rule of typo club is, you do not talk about typo club. Thanks for ruining all the good ebay deals for everyone.
- Alfyx, on 11/07/2008, -1/+9A&F is for ***** and wanks.
- dyckdownunder, on 05/30/2008, -0/+7twuts and winks?

EDIT: I take that back.

- topherbook, on 05/30/2008, -1/+8I'm sorry.
- jr93087, on 05/30/2008, -0/+7You could wear those while playing your Chintendo Vii.
- nullx42, on 05/30/2008, -1/+8You're doing it wrong.
- BradBrown, on 05/30/2008, -0/+7I'm beginning my search for hoookers and mef amfetamine as I type...
- StueyPidass, on 05/30/2008, -0/+6Yea,,,Don't expect to get a refund if the item arrived is as described.
- cowsgonemadd3, on 05/30/2008, -0/+5Ebay auto corrects spelling on items now days....combining misspelled items together with proper spelled ones making these tools about useless.
- plasma25, on 05/30/2008, -0/+5nice wan!
- IanPR, on 05/30/2008, -0/+5...not anymore. haha
- uhhNo, on 05/30/2008, -0/+5Want to buy my Makbook Pro by Appl Inc? Only $700!
[fine print] This product is not to be confused with Apple's Macbook Pro. [/fine print] - borez, on 05/30/2008, -0/+4My mate's a master at this on ebay, he got himself a £9000 Mercedes for £3200 by searching for listed spellings mistakes.
- Cattywampus, on 05/30/2008, -0/+4Just the opposite... it's a great opportunity to profit off of someone else's sloppiness or laziness. If someone's listing an item and can't bother to accurately read or type the name on it, they can't blame anyone but themselves if the item doesn't sell.
- alexkrycek, on 05/30/2008, -1/+5I've tried sites that do that. But no one ever seems to misspell Vaio or Alienware.
- ligyron, on 05/30/2008, -0/+4This trick was a lot more useful when 95% of the population never knew about it. I would have probably buried this article if it was posted a couple years ago. Now it doesn't really matter anymore
- 0x1d3n, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3A typo and it is still overpriced...
- odiego, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3I want Nintendi Wii
- MortalynFlux, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3Yeah, try getting into the airport with those.
- GJBlizzard, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3I think that's better than the real thing, I would buy Nukes any day.
- foofightrs777, on 05/30/2008, -2/+5Hmm....is it a spelling or grammar error?
- exomni, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3I don't recommend searching for BAPE through this.
- alex7575, on 05/30/2008, -0/+3I tried doing a search and misspelling "pussy" in the erotic section of Craigslist, and the prices seem to be all the same...
- TalSiach, on 05/29/2008, -2/+5I have a friend that uses these things to save lots of money on ebay, these tools looks useful next time I'm planing to buy something ill check them for sure.
- johnn11238, on 05/30/2008, -2/+5You win the most pointless comment award.
- jls33fsls, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2I found something on eBay way back when before these fancy typo buddy sites and got it for 99 cents instead of like $30. It turns out I spelled it wrong when I searched for it, lucky me I guess. Tiberian Sun, great game for its time!
- Godlike, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2So much good ***** gets ruined this way. Every good thing in WoW gets ruined because some idiot posts it somewhere. Word of mouth first person will never spread it enough to get it shut down or to ruin it tell all the people you want but you DONT POST THIS STUFF.
- inactive, on 05/30/2008, -1/+3in response to this type of stuff sellers are now intentionally misspelling titles so they are on the "bargain list" :)
- heathuff23, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2anyone know if there is a universal search for craigslist that will search more than one city?
- DatoeDakari, on 05/30/2008, -1/+3Who didn't figure this out in their first five minutes of using ebay?
- coolmuffin121, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2http://cgi.ebay.com/WHITE-APPLE-IPOT-SHUFFLE_W0QQi ...
- vacuum2440, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2to be honest how bad do you wanna buy a product from someone who doesnt even take the time in to make sure they spelled the item title correctly..
- sonnybobiche, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2The key is to make sure the picture matches what you're actually looking for. I got a first edition GK Chesterton book from 1938 for $20 because it was spelled GC Chesterton.
- leonardoty, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2Do you really want to buy something from someone not intelligent enough to correctly read the packaging and make a real listing?
I don't. Last time I did that, the product never showed up. - kingdomdude, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2It could be an iPot.... maybe its some sorta of a portable pisser.
or a maybe the seller is secretly selling some mary jane through eBay... - purzzzell, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2no ***** - buried.
- fLUx1337, on 05/30/2008, -2/+4http://fatfingers.com - great site, would recommend! A++++
- DMCer, on 05/30/2008, -0/+2Now this won't work since everyone will do it from now on.
