Looks like another EBAY Scam

Wasn't this the Rebreather Richie Kohler sold??

I would be suspicious as it is most certainly the photos of Richie's unit. Per a mutual friend he is also back in the states so it would be highly unlikely that he would cart it to Europe to sell. I suppose it is possible that the person who bought the unit the first time it was on Ebay is selling it or the original transaction fell through but...... Probably would be a good idea to report it to Ebay and let them handle it. It is not a good idea to bid $100,000,000 which destroys the slight chance that Ebay and their on site investigators will ever catch the guy. Contrary to popular opinion they make extensive efforts to identify and arrest scam artists though for obvious reasons they do not detail specific efforts to everybody who asks.
