A lot of sellers "test the water" so to speak. Talk the item up in the blurb, put it on for a hugely inflated price and see if anyone is dumb enough, (or fooled by the claims) to actually buy at that price. Sometimes it works and the seller really cleans up! However more often than not, the item fails to attract any interest, it is taken down, only to reappear later at a far lower asking price. Not really a scam, but certainly misrepresentation.
