Buyers & sellers working together to inflate prices big time. Seller never reports non payment, so item looks to be sold for that amount.

It reads:

Money laundering. This is a common practice on eBay. Someone selling contraband or illegal items will put up a listing on eBay, instruct the buyer to purchase it there, and their illegal transaction can happen undetected. Money is transferred and the authorities are none the wiser.

Buyer never pays. Only the seller knows if the buyer actually pays. A buyer with no intention of paying may fool around with a listing and bid it up to an astronomical price just for fun. This is also common on eBay - non paying bidders.
