Yup. If you're doing a key-word search you need to dumb it down to the lowest intelligence denominator.
Some are just illiterate people:
Shortwave (correct) and short wave.
Shotgun (correct) and shot gun.
Firearm (correct) and fire arm.
Some are people who are from somewhere else:
Antenna and antennae.
EDIT to add: One common one for illiterates is an ad for a car or motorcycle that has "new breaks". Yeah, newly broken stuff makes your item much more desirable...

Have you ever any listed free, come and get it merchandise?
I was cleaning up a property East of here in the Mountains.
There was a bunch of stuff there I needed to relocate.
And some of it was useable.
The problem was lots of the folks who wanted it didn't want to come and get it.
So they thought that driving me crazy would get them the items???
I finally cancelled the ad and filled the box.

^^^ The ad said replacing an employee that spends to much time on Craigslist. LOL
The last place I worked had Craigslist and EBAY blocked as well as any site about guns.
I have sold a few unwanted guns on Armslist but all were face to face cash deals. Don't ask for trouble and you just might not get any.

I use a counterfeit checking pen with all 20 dollar bills and larger and don't mind a bit if a seller uses one on my cash when buying. Ask anyone who deals in a lot of cash; mini-marts etc. There are LOTS of fake bills in circ. and the bank will catch them if we don't.

I just bought a leather couch and chair on craigs.
One thing to remember when going to look at the stuff, ask the seller if they have any guns they want to sell. Twice I've found buried treasure this way..... but this time, no joy, just a couch and chair from Pacific Green.(at about 15% mkt.)
