While browsing, I noticed this auction. Can you see how many things are wrong with it? I can see three without thinking about it...

Cheque not paypal????? But it won't clear in time.....

And 'appreciate' is spelt incorrectly, although that isn't against any e-bay rules

There are two spaces between the words include seats, is that it???

Oh no, I've got it. They're setting a reserve price without using the reserve feature!

Do I win anything?

MORE EDITING - Clutching at straws here, it's not obvious that he's paid £32 like he says he has. He says it's a real bargain, I don't consider it to be.

Wasn't specifically against the rules, just observations about what was wrong with the auction... There's one more glaring error with the text of the auction, but may take some more esoteric knowledge of auction set-ups

Lol, you win the privilege of getting it right... although technically £12 per ticket reserve price is under the £50 minimum for a reserve price

The auction made me smile anyway

Thanks, I couldn't spell apostrophe, and in a thread about picking holes in the way someone's written something I didn't want to risk it!
