I've seen a few outrageously hopelessly priced things on ebay. I assume it's either a typo or a hopeless scam attempt. Given the seller's number of transactions and 100% feedback I'd say typo in this case.

eBayers will do that when they're temporarily out of stock but expect to get some more in soon. Raise the price so no one will buy it and that way they don't have to take down a constantly repeating ad and make a new one, Just lower the price to what you want to sell it for when it gets back in stock.

Classic example of price gouging...I can get an Avid rotor at my LBS for less than half that price.

EDIT: Price gouging happens when customers don't have another option. I don't think that applies here.

Their PR advisors probably won't let them go there if they know what's good for them because every sandal-wearing, blue-haired, pink-bespectacled, gender-fluid Leftie will be baying for Bezos' blood! Knowles, Peterson and Shapiro will be having a field day with this! 😱 My YouTube feed will be ruined!
I don't log into youtube so I really rarely have a feed. Admittedly I do get some junk sometimes like a lot of it from absolute human garbage but I know what I enjoy watching and don't mind a quick search. My phone has the app so I guess it memorizes stuff there so a lot of Seinfeld, Forgotten Weapons, Simpons clips, Dubilners and late Luke Kelly specifically and Stephen Colbert Show.

I mean if you are watching Ben Shapiro yeah there is problems there. He looks like Eddie Munster but not in good way.
Everytime I see Steve Harvey I can't stop thinking about the Kathy Mitchell Steve Harvey dub from Jaboody Dubs "...I ain't sure about the tast I just taste so much blood, I think I need a dentist"
