With one immigrant parent who is getting older and less 'with it'  but who still loves to use eBay It find it a bit rude to assume that everyone has a good grasp of English and who can't be forgiven for small mistakes.

There are many people here who try their best but don't have English as their first language, are new to computers and typing, have a disability like dyslexia, sometimes make a mistake while typing quickly, or who are just human so I feel that more people should be a bit more tolerant of mistakes and grammatical and spelling errors.

I realise that they might be losing viewers with mistakes but it is not the end of the world.
