Spelling is Important

This really nice Inhumans 12 35 cent variant was recently listed on ebay.  The listing was well researched and the seller knew that she was selling the very rare 35 cent version of the book. 

Unfortunately, she made one mistake, and it was a big one.  She listed the book as a 35 cent variEnt. Your elementary school teacher was correct, spelling is important.  Guess what? This book sold for $1.86 since it was the equivalent of a hidden listing.  "Varient" does not show up when you do an ebay search for "variant."  Likewise, "Double CVR" does not show up when you do a search for "Double Cover." 

The moral of the story?  I search for "Scoobie" and "Scooby."
