ADVERTISEMENTS

Misspelled listings tend to have less people viewing resulting in less bids, thus making the price remains low. That’s where TypoTrawler comes in. Typotrawler is a newly launched website to identify and list misspelled items on eBay so you can easily bid on them. With TypoTrawler, online buyers can take advantage of misspelled listings on eBay.

TypoTrawler is different to other services because instead of users having to
enter the search term by hand (e.g. ‘laptop’), we continually search eBay for
hundreds of thousands of different misspelled items. We them group them into
the categories on our website so that users can easily view them.

To get started, click on the flag to choose your local eBay site, then select which categories to trawl. You can drag the speed slider to the right of left to change the speed of the items displayed. To pause or resume the display, just press the space bar. You can also vote the item a thumbs up or down to improve the result for everyone.

You can click on the ‘Open TinyTrawler’ button to show a list of misspelled items in the category of what you have selected. You can thus have 5 different TinyTrawler windows open with different selection of categories.

There is a ‘View on screen Help’ on the top right screen, click on it and it will guide you through everything on the screen.

TypoTrawler is really interesting for those who like to search misspelled listing on eBay.
