Odds are you have bid, or at least browsed, for items on eBay. Sometimes the prices are ultra cheap and sometimes items go for above retail price. It really is a crap-shoot sometimes.
One advantage a savvy eBay user has is the ability to locate misspelled or incorrectly categorized items. Since these items are not easily stumbled across, only a few people may know about and avoid a bidding war.
A fantastic tool to find these “mistaken” listings is Type Snipe. With this simple tool, you type a keyword to search eBay for and it generates (from their website):
- Character typed twice
- Character omitted
- Characters swapped
- Key next to correct character hit
- Key next to correct character and correct character hit
So by browsing “mistaken” listings you might can really snag a bargain.
