a little hint here, I've heard that Jewelry is the #1 mis-spelled word on Ebay! Good Luck!

[klarsen117]

Question.. What is the point of that? Is it to find auctions?

[wendy1214]

It is too help you find auctions with titles that may have been misspelled. The thinking here is that if it is misspelled, not as many people will see it, meaning you should be able to get it at a lesser cost because not as many people will be bidding.
Make sense?

So if you find a misspelling, somehow you get some $? How does that work?

[Kristallovesmomof5]

On my other computer I have SpellingBee for ebay. Its great. I can't remember where I got it One of the big Powersellers were giving it away. but it great.

Ebay's search doesn't pull up common misspellings so anytime a seller lists something with an incorrect/misspelled title, fewer buyers eyes will see that auction. Fewer eyes can mean no bidding war and you end up with a super cheap item!

[jenawood20]

Is there anywhere that has a list of the most commonly misspelled words? By the way, this thread is AWESOME!

[honeybabysaunt]

Thanks for this! I never knew anything like this existed!

[Random Refunder]

the only thing I've ever worried about was high dollar items like "diamond".

The reason is that legally, a company can sell jewelry with fake diamonds and call them terms like "diamonel" or such.

Lets say a seller accidentally mispells the word "diamond" with "diamoned" on their piece of jewelry that actually is a genuine diamond. You're the only one that bids on it and wins a $500 peice of jewelry for $5.00.

The seller is going to be confused momentarily wondering why his jewelry didn't sell, then he see's his typo. If he removes the "real" diamond and replaces it with a dime store stone, he could probably get by with it because his defense would be, "that's what our imitation diamonds are called"

The buyer can't claim SNAD because it's not a *real diamond* because the sellers listing never described it as a *real diamond* ...

ok, probably not a lot of this situation out there, but you guys get what I'm saying.

OMG! I would feel soooooo guilty if I got something really cheap because they misspelled a word in the title. I would be heartbroken if that happened to me. I guess that's why putting in a reserve price is a really good idea!

[babytlee2]

thanks, I knew there was an easy way to do it!

[Luv2Shop247]

Cool! I tried "Premier Designs" jewelry, a few came up with 0 bids, but they were more than I was willing to pay. =)
