I bid $251 on a name on NW but didn't notice it was a mispell
SamuriSwords.com

Anyone want it for $250 :)
 
Its a mispell?
 
$251 for learning a lesson

yes,
samurai is correct spelling
 
ouch.... thx for that though... time to check the spelling of my namewinner bids, lol
 
Interesting... there must have been another "idiot" or "idiots" to push the bids as high as $251!
 
Yes, and I would like to find them
 
I am proud to be a typo idiot!

Can not spell anyway - in any language - but my typos serve me well :)
 
Maybe I should set up a so called "mispell names fund" where if someone makes a mistake and buys a mispelled name, people can donate money to him. Ill start it off, any generous donations over $100 to paypal [email protected] :)

OK... since this seems to be a thread of confessions of stupid actions I'll admit I registered:

Cyrogenics.net and .us

I thought... wow!.. those are still available? Cool. So I cut and pasted. It was not until afterwards that I realized they were not:

Cryogenics.net and .us

Doh! :embarrass

Lesson: be careful cutting and pasting. Type it out and/or use spell check!
 
But, Dome. Didn't you use to (or still do) make red circles around college term papers for misspellings?

ByaLik, I am sure I saw a thread about someone else also buying samuraiswords sometime recent. I did a quick search last night. but, could not find it. Or, I might have seen it on another board.

However, I know it was sometime recent. Maybe, he (she) refused it and it dropped again?

As for my own confessions. There have been a lot of close calls. But, I try to use the spellcheck or dictionary (Alexa toolbar). Before I push the final button.

Byalik, do not use the the sword to do a "hara-Kiri"!

And cut and paste it into search engine, you will find it would come back a very few results if it is a typo name ;)
 
Well, I grabbed Budgetours.com not noticing the missing "T"
Oddly enough it gets a few type ins.

Sometimes... but I mainly focus on logic/content... maybe a little grammar here or there... :) Actually, spelling has always been my weakest suit.

I can see it now...

"And Ladies and Gentlemen... on your left is the historic Budge... note the ornate workmanship and delicate patterns... you will not find a finer Budge anywhere in the world. Next stop -- the tourist shop where you can select among many fine budge replicas."

:D
 
Anyone want Tiawan.CN or Archtect.CN?? I typed those in wrong. Ouch!! A $90 lesson. We've all done it. You may want to find the people with the right spelling. They SHOULD give you something for it; maybe.
 
To err is human, to forgive, divine.
 
Just registered ecubical.com and icubical.com last week. Didn't realize my mistake until I awoke with a start in the middle of the night. Cubical is a word, but not what I wanted (cubicle).
