A couple of weeks ago I offered a buyer a little extra item with the purchase of her craft book. I asked her to let me know if she was interested. At least, that's what I thought I had said, in checking my emails today I had asked her to let me know "if she was infested"!! Maybe that's why she didn't reply!

LOL... Yes that will do it. You must have used one of those spell checkers that change your words instead of correcting the spelling errors.

LOL "are you infested?" LOLROFL

Yes but how did you know?

ROFL Amber !! Thanks for my daily laugh !! I did a typo once too if it makes you feel better .I'm pretty sure the buyer would laugh too if your wrote her and told her you just caught the error ...or you can save the letter and quietly sit back and grin everytime you read it later as a pick me

Yes, you are right Greengate, it was the spell checker, I have to laugh at some of the alternatives it offers. Another mistake I made was to put "Hi Christ", instead of "Hi Chris", the buyer had a laugh over that one!

I've made typos in feedback as well. Fats instead of fast, etc.

I once sold a clock to someone and later, after looking at sent e-mails, noticed I left off a critical "L" from the word.

It's embarrassing but it happens!

Hopefully the recipient either doesn't notice because they see what they expect to see or they'll have a sense of humor.
