Here is a cool little tool that can help you pick up some great deals on eBay, by finding auctions with virtually no competition. It is called Typo Buddy.
Typo Buddy is a search tool that allows you to find misspelled listings on both eBay and Craigslist. Auctions with misspelled words often get few, if any, bids. With little or no competition from other bidders, you can easily to snag some incredible deals and pay only a fraction of the usual cost.
Here’s how it works. Say you want to buy a Louis Vuitton wallet. When you search for this item on eBay, you will normally have to compete with many other bidders. However, using Typo Buddy you can find listings that has accidentally been misspelled. Nobody else will see these listings and you will be the only bidder. Pretty cool, huh?
Typo Buddy will look for several different kinds of misspellings or typos, including:
- Letters transposed
- Missing letters
- Letters typed twice
- Extra letters inserted by a neighboring key
- Phonetic misspellings
- Letters replaced by a neighboring key
So, how do you use it? Typo Buddy has a simple form that allows you to type in whatever you want to find, with the correct spelling. It then searches for typos and misspellings of the phrase you typed in.
Want to include correctly spelled auctions? No problem. In addition to the misspelled listings, Typo Buddy can also return listings for the correct spellings, so you can see all the auctions.
You can even save your searches and rerun them later. This feature requires cookies. So, good luck finding some awesome deals.
