This isn't a 'watch out' warning, rather a tool to find possible intentional misspellings. Mods - if you have to move the thread, go for it, I just wasn't sure where else to place it.

So I noticed that some of you look for misspelled Rolex listings which try to fly below radar on ebay. Try this website: http://www.fatfingers.co.uk

Type in 'Rolex', then click on 'Find' and it will pull up all misspelled listings. Obviously, you can look for anything. Funny story: I also collect rare books and Presidential memorabilia, and one day few years ago I did a search for Ronald Reagan using Fatfingers. I found one auction for a 'Regan' signed book, ended up winning the book for around $80, had it authenticated - it was the real deal. This was roughly 2 weeks before Reagan passed away...

I like that tool. It's been bookmarked. Thanks for sharing.
