It will probably stay cheap since the seller has bad feedback.

Ah, but you can bid with confidence.  It says so, right in the Ad.

I still contend that that's not quite true.  A cheap BMW is more
expensive than a cheap Mercedes.

Agreed. And what about a cheap Porsche? I once avoided buying a cheap
Maserati by noticing that it had water in the oil. (1984 or 1985 Biturbo,
they had leakage problems at the block/sleeve interface. Seller should
have had the brains to change the oil before letting me look at it)
