Now I check the auction listings for mislabeled authors

I used to only search by title or author on auction sites, missing everything. About a month ago I saw a copy of a 1920s detective novel listed under "literary studies" because the seller didn't know better. I got it for $12 and it's worth around $200. Now I search for common misspellings and wrong categories on every estate sale listing. Anyone else do keyword sweeps for stuff sellers can't identify?
