I got an Aroldis Chapman Elite Red Status auto /50 over the summer for like $17 because the guy had it listed in the wrong category and absolutely mangled the spelling. I flipped it a week later for about $70. Joke was on me, however, as about a month later Chapman was called up to the Reds and threw a 103 mph fastball and his cards went nuts.

I've found a lot of good deals, nothing earthshattering, where a baseball card was listed in the football section or visa versa. I won a 2010 Topps Sterling Stan Musial Gold #2/5 for $15 in the football section the other day...thought that was a solid deal.

"Payton" Manning is a common misspelling.

I once got a Matt Ryan auto for the 2009 Career Best Set I was building for just $15 on a BIN, about 5 minutes after the seller listed it. He then sent me an e-mail saying that he meant to sell it for $105, so if I paid the $90 difference, I'd get the card. I responded by telling him I'd file a claim.

I received the card and the guy tried to guilt trip me via e-mail ("it's super rare!" "it books for $200!").

I would have dealt with the filing. Not like ebay would have done anything about it.
