Apologies if this has been posted before. It was news to me.
It's a little webpage called TypoHound... basically you type in the item you're looking for in eBay and it searches for mispelled auctions. I'm sure this isn't a totally new concept but this site runs fast and it's powerful.
Example: I put in Castlevania and it found a *much* less successful auction (translating to a much lower bid, obviously) because someone had spelled it as Castelvana. The program is pretty powerful and it created around 70 different potential mispellings.
It only takes a second to utilize Typohound, and it might not help you every time but methinks why not run my queries through it, just in case.
