  • I've found both bargainchecker.com and lowcostbid.com really easy to use, with good results :j
    worth a look to get a bargain!

    Watch out for found misspelt items and their postage costs !

    I checked out a few of these sites for Digital Camera to find some for £4.99, but with £30.99 postage costs.
  • Yet another eBay misspelling site is Missing-Auctions.com. It offers many of the same features as the other listed here but also a few interesting twists.

    Most notable is the ability to turn your searches into RSS feeds. You can then subscribe to these in your favourite RSS feed reader (eg Google reader) which means that as soon as a misspelled item matching your search is listed on eBay you get to know about it before anyone else !

    Another really cool feature is the ability to see what other people are searching for. You can either look at the most recent searches for eBay misspelled items or at the eBay typo tag cloud which shows you which are the most popular searches over the last 30 days. The more popular the search, the bigger the word. This is very handy if you're looking to buy misspelled items which you then resell on again at full price !
  • Ooh excellent thread :)
