From the page:

“Say you are looking to buy a Louis Vuitton wallet or perhaps an espresso maker. When you search for those things on ebay you’ll normally be in a competitive bid situation. If, however, you can find listings where people have accidentally misspelled the item or made a typo, then nobody else will see the listing and you’ll be the only bidder. That is how you get a great deal on eBay!“

To get started, type in whatever you are looking for (spelled correctly) and click “Search”. TypoBuddy will then search for all possible typos and misspellings of it and bring you the results.

Features:

• Search for misspelled eBay auctions and CraigsList listings.
• Bookmark and mange your searches from one place.

There is one problem with it though, sometimes there are just too many reviews, especially when it comes to buying gadgets and home electronics.

It can quickly analyze all reviews and produce a concise natural language summary for any product.

It tries to get only the important parts from the reviews and leave the ramblings out. What you get is a list of short summaries outlining pros and cons for that or the other product.

Check out the screenshot below.

I know we have mentioned a number of cool gadget review sites before, these are ExpoTV (video reviews), Swotti (quick opinions), and ReviewGist but so far TestFreaks is my favorite. Not only does it combine the features offered by other websites but also does this quite well so you won’t get overwhelmed. Definitely a website to bookmark. Some of the noteworthy features:

Product Profile:

Each gadget has a profile page. Here you can check out gadget images, video reviews, and rating scores (i.e. general user score, expert score, design, value for money, features, ease fo use, performance etc.) Check out the screenshot below.

Side-by-side Comparion:

That’s another handy feature. If you need to make up your mind between 2 or more items you can compare the gadgets side by side. Quite handy.

Price Comparison:

Finally there is a price comparison feature that lets you easily find the cheapest place where you can order the gadget.
