A short bit of research shows the vendor to be in Wales.  In fact,

The sockets in the background on one of those pictures are definitely not UK but that alone doesn't make it dodgy.  I have pictures of my bikes from tours abroad.

The seller has exactly the same item listed as "located in" Canada and Germany, on different listings. The information in the "See full information" link (here) says it's actually £1100. I wouldn't touch it with a very long bargepole!

Oh dear, the poor ebay seller has been hacked. She sells crystals/beads and has +ve thousands of feedback. Suddenly she has listed bikes, musical instruments and cameras, all starting at the same time, hundreds of items.

There's no point trying to contact her. I'll send a note to ebay and hope someone picks it up.

Obviously, those secondary "full information" pages don't normally have a link to "buy it now".

But this one has a fake one, I don't think ebay allows any seller to add links let alone a fake link on the main listing page.

If you look at the seller's other items, you can their real listings which are mostly "healing crystals" etc, with the item location which matches the seller's. Also look at completed listings.

I suspect all the listings for bikes, cameras etc were added by someone who's hacked the seller's account.

Ah, good work folks.

I took the trouble to ebay the account holder (found her email elsewhere). 

She thanked us for alerting her to the issue and apparently ebay have now locked her account down.

That's a little forward, surely.

[Polar Bear]

Yeah, I don't know what happened there.  Predictive text mixed in with not being able to properly read my small screen I guess.  Anyway, as you probably gathered, I emailed her. 

I'm not into alternative therapies so I decided not to bid on her!

I tried reporting fraudulent selling to ebay a couple of years ago but they weren't in the slightest bit interested.

I this instance it was someone in the States selling my Seiran.  No doubt about it from the photo, the only difference was that they had very crudely photo-shopped out the Challenge logo and replaced it with something else, can't quite remember what except that it began with 'V'.
