More Of The Worst eBay Misspellings Contest

Bicycle Misspelling Bycicle Misspelled

We have been showing you that Typo Buddy can help you find misspellings on eBay auctions. Our last contest was a huge success with over 70 comments. We had so much doing it last time, we figured we would try it one more time.

Typo Buddy Contest Information

The rules will be are the same as our last contest.

Just use Typo Buddy to find the worst eBay misspelling that you can find. For examples, look at our contest round-up post. Many of you found some great misspellings and seem to have fun doing so.

Once you have found a bad misspelling, just leave a comment and a link to the auction. We will chose our favorite misspelling. Also make sure to leave your email so we can contact you if you win.

The two people who find the worst eBay misspelling will each receive a $25 eBay gift certificate.

The contest will end Monday June 30th (11:59 EST) so you have time to find some misspelled auctions.

    TypoBuddy is great! When I looked for misspellings of stationery with it I got results instantly, different from ones I found when putting stationary in the search box at eBay for finding misspelling of stationery, and a lot faster.

    You know those helpful baby things called onesies because they are a Tshirt and diaper cover as ONE thing? Well, you would be amazed at how many eBay sellers think they are called onsies — I guess it’s the opposite of offsies because they are ON the baby?

    My favorite is the onsie/one piece. If they know it is one piece, why not ONEsie
