They want what for it?

On eBay the 1/87 Revell Transrapid static maglev set.
Starting price £499.99 with £3.40 postage.
I had one of those sets, you get 2 dummy cars, a 18 inch section of track and 4 pylons to support the track.
However there's a motorized set also advertised on eBay that is a maglev based on the real world Japanese/Chinese train for $299.

The words "Pro Built" appear in the description of this $244 Heinkel He 111.
It also says it is Museum quality.

The trash sellers on ebay have some sick love for descriptions like the above mentioned or words like "rare", "authentic", "vintage" etc. Every and any sh?t labeled "rare" is offered for a price even higher than of a real collector's item. I'm following a seller (check my previous post with the red...something from a Coke bottle). This time he offers, among the many "gems" from the trash, this unique...thing (in fact it's probably not a thing but a big NO-thing ) for 25$ + 33$ shipping (to Canada in my case) : This is the original description:
This is a RARE Vintage 1/43 ? 3 3/4" Long Tootsie Toy Gremlin Hot Rod Hatchback. It has some scratches, scuff marks, and may be a little dusty and dirty. This is from an adult collection. It will be shipped in a plastic bag and wrapped in bubble wrap or peanuts and put in a cardboard box. How nice! It looks like taken from a landfill, man!

I'd have binned that years ago. Total rubbish.

I do hope that's a typo

I think this seller is a little optimistic with his pricing

A LITTLE bit? 

The guy's a nutcase.

[Old Wombat]

Oh good! They "May not post to Australia". What? We not good enough for them?

Well, in that case, I'm taking my money to the nice people selling theirs for £12.95 AND  £11.37 Expedited Delivery to Australia!

[strobez]

They also "May not post to Canada"... I didn't bother checking to see if they'd send it here to me in Seoul...

I can't even begin to get my brain around that. I just assume the transfer option is a sought after one ? Otherwise I'm just totally baffled
