Another thing against it is that the seller has absolutely no
feedback. I would never even consider a purchase of any size from
someone who was a complete unknown, not that I'd ever think about an
H8 at that price even if I had the money.

Obviously a prank of some sort, and there even no pictures.
Besides that, anybody who is ready to lay down such an amount of
money should rather spend it at a mental clinic.

I picked one up 3 months ago at a yard sale for $1.25 and sold t for $25
just last month - this guy is smoking some crack, the butt cheek kind.

Ah, have you considered it might be a mistake?
How so I hear you cry?
Have you ever mistyped a comma rather than a period when entering a number
in Ebay, and then (stupidly) forgotten to check the number before
continuing? I have :-) I then had hyperventolated (sp?) while I tried to
figure out how to retract my bid!
For example:
30,00 = 3000, not 30.00
250,00 = 25000, not 250.00
So 250.00 might be high for some, but no where near as bad as 25000!
Cheers,
Duncan.

This apparently happens just about often enough that the eBay folks include it
among the valid reasons for retracting a bid.

That's certainly happened to me while hopping between ebay.de and ebay.co.uk.
