It is not like this Seller had corrected his mistake. He just left it like this. Not very responsible leaving a TYPO just hanging there. People just pass this stuff by like is is nothing, but this is getting serious. Sellers don't get any protection by eBay and I realize this, but This is flat out irresponsible.

I has mentioned to another member recently, that eBay NEEDS a blog or a chat system integrated into each item so that this gets noticed, otherwise people will continue getting shafted.


Anyway,

He also mentions that it takes a silver oxide battery, which proves just how old it is :eek:
