This search tool for Ebay is sooo cool! I have been messin' around and playin' with it all morning. It's just too much fun. It's called Fat Fingers and it's a search engine that helps you find your favorite brands by a huge list of typos that would normally take you all day to search. These typos have less traffic and very few, if any, bids so you can get your hands on the coolest brands for next to nothing. Here are some examples:
Dinsey Pooh Baby Monitor Picture Frame with 2 receivers $0.99
LOUIS VITTON RAZOR $50.00
GUCC Poochie Black Velour Hooded Shirt Pet Dog Apparel $15.99
Ralp Lauren Baby Girl's Black Leather Crib Shoes $22.99
MINT MIB BARBIE APRIL & MAY TAURUS FREE +BONUS BARIE $3.99
*FYI - You gotta try this one!
