Ummm....
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3283&item=5732679509This seller is claiming this to be an AirTangent prototype.
quote "This arm's current version retails for $18,000.00."But we know better because we have discussed this arm before in the Vinyl Asylum, due to its audiogon listing:
http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?anlgtnrm&1103578744Also, they say that it was traded in, and yet the photograph that they supplied is exactly identical to one from the makers web page.

The same web page where one can be purchased for ~<$300This tells us that the ebay seller is knowingly deceiving people.
They probably do not even have the arm. Decided they would make a fake auction, hype it up to get high bids. Best case they send the (over paying) winner the arm after ordering one and pocketing the profit.
Worst case, they take the scam further and run with the cash (which seems to be a trend with ebay items that have an earlier dating classified on audiogon).sigh-
