Note that the shipping is listed as $1.00 ... it could be that the seller
expects to get only 10 cents or so for the item, but will make his money
from the inflated shipping charges.  Of course, this is a violation of eBay
rules -- an attempt to circumvent the commission system by overcharging for
shipping -- but it's not something that they're likely to catch, and some
bidders may not notice the shipping charge even though it is disclosed in
the item description.
