Agreed, sounds like a fraudulent listing. Report it to ebay's fraud department.

This happens all the time. I belong to groups that mess with pinball machines and jukeboxes, both single large value items. There are scam auctions on the go regularly. Usually we can cut and paste the text and find the original source, but in other cases we always ask the seller a question that we know cannot be true, such as 'Is it the version with the XYZ feature because that is the one I am especially after.' Invariably a scammer, eager to secure a deal, will respond with: 'Yes that is the one I have for sale'. As if...

The usual story if you offer to collect and pay cash is that the machine is not where they originally said it was anymore, it's all crated up and somewhere else.
