Rule #1 :

When copying and pasting part of your item title, make sure that you spell it CORRECTLY the first time!

Um ... I have no idea what you are talking about, so I guess not. The secret remains! Actually, I can probably guess what you are talking about - some kind of program that will search a word along with various different mis-spellings of that word (eg. nintendo, ninendo, nitendo etc etc.)

If so ... INCORRECT CHALLENGE! :D

Shouldn't someone tell them they spelled it wrong? It is a N00b seller and they don't have anything too rare for sale. I think I will play the "nice guy" and let them know.

Vroomfunkel: I bet you use a divining rod, correct?

Close ... but no cigar :D

P.S. Sure tell him I guess ... although the flip side of the coin is that you might prevent someone from getting a bargain. But, as you said, nothing there is especially rare.

Divining rod? Damn! I've been rattled!
