Might be my favorite line from an ebay listing ever.

The writing style is almost Shakespearean. I wonder how many different ways she can miss-spell the word "burnt/burned"?

In addition to "brunt" and "BURT" I would suggest for future descriptions:

"burnded"

"brunned"

"berned"

"bernt"

"bernted"


Maybe she believes she's exploiting some sort of Ebay Fraudulent Autograph loophole.

"Your honor, I'm innocent you see. For I was not trying to sell a burned autograph, I was trying to sell a brunt autograph. This not only signifies that I am a complete moron, but that the autograph is disclosed up front as a forgery (ie. it has been brunted)."
