I would be quite surprised if she was able to sell wholesale quantities sight unseen at those prices. No, let's say shocked, not surprised. I'll probably be proved wrong as we should never underestimate what a boob will do for a boob ( Thirty million American men who visit "Gentlemen's Clubs" can't be wrong, can they? )
Seriously, you have to have caution when dealing on EBay; it is a great setup that will be abused by the usual suspects. Ebay and Paypal offer precious little protection for buyers (and I suspect they offer precious little protection for sellers either). If you use a decent credit card and act quickly, you can recover almost any purchase (unless the laws have been changed in the last year) simply by telling your credit card to refuse payment. I have tried to have Paypal and EBAY help me in fraudulent situations with much less success... partial repayment at best.
When you try to get restitution from EBAY and Paypal they make you jump through hoops! They have all these official sounding things like dispute resolution and Square Trade. They seem to require lots of paperwork and redoing the paper work and offer very little in return, just my experience with them...they don't seem to make it easy
Is this what this discussion is about?

ok here's what we do. somebody buy one of those high dollar rocks. i bet we can get the ghost in one of them to admit she touched it. then we'll send in the rock welfare team to frisk her and take her rocks away. any volunteers for the team? those could be rocks in there you know!

I know it's hazardous duty but someone has to do it. I'm single and don't have as much to lose as the married guys do so I feel honor bound to accept and even lead this mission of compassionate mercy... umm,... for the sake of the, uhh, rocks. Yeah, that's it , the rocks.

Joe your one heck of a guy to volunteer for hazardous duty like that ! You could say you are just interested in freeing the rock, Well silicon is what most rocks are made of right? I've been lucky with Ebay, only once did I get ripped off and Pay-pal did refund the money. Ebay removed the seller. He had ripped off alot of people.
