It's a pretty sloppy job with the red paint too. Should have learned to
color inside the lines in kindergarten.

Ouch! $300 for an MV-1 with a bit of red paint and an "electronic"
label added? PT Barnum was right.

It very likely that this is a fake. None of the "features" make
sense, especially the film type reminder on the back that looks
like it came off a 60's german rangefinder.
You may well be right but it's a very nicely done fake. It would
be interesting to know what the seller's reserve was. It was
passed in at about $150 so there was some (but obviously not
enough) interest.
Looking at the seller's feedback indicates that he/she has
accumulated a number of 'limited editions' of other cameras,
including a 'Pentax MV1 Electronic' which sold for over $300.
