Redwing Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 The curse of the auto correct in some cases I think! I did love the three drawer chest x 2 one though I've seen many different spellings of 'bantam' in ads but my fave was 'batman' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Not a spelling error, but I had to laugh at this... I recently advertised our rabbit hutch on Freegle, taking great pains to point out that it was 4' long by 4' high and 2' deep and would need two strong peeps tp carry it and a van or similar. Guess what? A couple turned up. her preggers and him weedy, in a Corsa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Maybe they misread the ad and thought it was in inches!? Perhaps they have dwarf rabbits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Maybe they thought the Corsa was a Tardis?? I've had that once, advertising two sets of shelves, posting dimensions and pictures... one really needed a car for them... this young student girl turns up then is dismayed that she can't carry them on the bus!!!!!

The Dogmother Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I shouldn't be surprised really... I once advertised 2 single beds for an elderly neighbour and a couple turned up in a classic mini What really worries me is that these folks are eligible to vote and decide the future of our country.

Geoid Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 When I was renovating my house, I had to go to Wickes (a lot), someone had ordered a kitchen worktop (4 metres long) and turned up in a small hatchback! I overheard the person on the checkout say "3 adults and they bring a car...*shakes head* " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
