There’s a great competition going on over at TypoBuddy at the moment where $50 in eBay gift certificates are up for grabs!

All you have to do is visit TypoBuddy, enter a search term and discover the worst eBay misspelling you can find. An example would be Addidas instead of Adidas. Get the idea?

To enter the competition just leave a comment with your misspelling. Linking to the actual auction may help. TypoBuddy will choose their favorite misspelling, so make sure you do a few searches and leave your email so they can contact you if you win.

The person who finds the worst eBay misspelling will receive a $30 eBay gift certificate. Second place gets a $20 eBay gift certificate. The contest will end on Monday June 23rd.

A few of my favorites so far:

Nilke Running Shoes

Reebock Running Shoes

New Balnce Running Shoes

Garmin Forernner 305

Nke+ iPod Sport Kit

All joking aside, TypoBuddy is a great way to find bargains on eBay or your local Craigslist. Typically nobody finds these auctions that are misspelled, so their loss is your gain.

All good fun anyway, and it would nice to pick up a few dollars to spend at eBay wouldn’t it?
