    A simple email to the seller letting him/her know it's "McGwire" would suffice.

    Les, you have to admit that's hilarious, who doesn't know Mark McGwire, he's one of the most widely known players, not to mention a ten second google search would tell you how to spell it. That's just laziness.

    What if the person's dyslexic? What if the person's expertise is in sewing? One of the biggest things people should learn is that not everyone follows the same things that you do; other people have other priorities. So - I wouldn't call that person lazy.

    Lighten up please. I am just having a little fun. I do not believe this seller for one minute has a disability. I think it's laziness... If you're selling sports jerseys, you should know Kordell Stewart has 2 L's not 1, Carmelo Anthony has 1 L, not 2, Emmitt Smith has 2 T's not 1. McGwire's spelling was just ridiculous. Have you never chuckled at an ebay listing before?

    Well, I can't say for sure, but I don't think the person has a disbaility becuase the rest of the listing has no mistakes and includes well-written vocabulary. I just think that if I were selling something on ebay that I'm not an expert on, which I've done before, I would do some basic research for the title and discription. The person doesn't have to be incredibly knowledgable to do that much. If this person does indeed have a disability then this is understandable and no insult intended.

    That could just be a typo, it's not as butchered as that McGwire listing. BTW, I just asked my sister, who knows absolutely NOTHING about baseball or sports for that matter, to spell McGwire's las name and she did so correctly.
