There have been a rash of these recently, including lots claiming to originate from China.

It is indeed a scam, but they still seem to catch one or two suckers - I have actually seen people bidding on these items.
Sometimes, the ads carry a message "Do not bid, contact me for a 'Buy it now' price"
I tried this out of curiosity, and got an e-mail back asking me to send US$400 by Western Union Money Transfer to an address in Romania!
I have reported these phoney ads to Ebay, but they still seem to appear.
Beware folks!
