So while observing what new items had been added to Ebay today, this item caught my atention.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/warhammer-40k-Astra-Millitarium-Imperial-Guard-/322645054853?hash=item4b1f24d585:g:V~sAAOSw6DdZi7n7

So lets summarize whats wrong

-Way to cheap at 15$ barerly for whats on the pics about 300$+
-No shipping cost at all
-China
-New seller with keyboard bashed username
-No bidding option

Im guessing that the person that bought it are gonna get the pictures rather than the modells

Well shipping would cost more than $15 internationally surely. So they're basically selling it for nothing. Even if they only ship the photos it hardly seems worth it. Weird.

Also, sold. So either they noticed their mistake, or someone has taken the risk. For $15 I would have considered it myself, and I don't even play IG.

Would be nice if its a dakka member who bought it and would post the result.

Even if it was a scam, Ebay has protection policies in place to protect the buyer, I'd have been all over that like white on rice, on a paper plate, in a snow storm, with a glass of milk.

Apparently the seller is also into leather chairs:

I see a bunch of others that are similar, and they're always around the $14-16 price point.

I see that this chair is sold by an account with 0 feedback/sales.
My bet is that it is a bot and will disappear, no chair, no shipping, nada. Just noise.

This is how the machines will take over the world.

Fifteen Dorrahs at a time

Could also be a way to scrub illegal funds through a bunch of paypal transactions?

Seems about right TBH. Mediocre paint at best, and missing parts. It might be worth $300 NIB but I sure wouldn't pay that much for it now. And even $15 is probably more than I'd offer.

I am more interested in the chairs a bargain!

I took a shot on a Khorne army that fits this description about a week ago. I don't count on ever seeing my $15 again, but it was worth a try! I'll let you guys know how it goes, but too good to be true sounds like an apt description.
