On ebay with a Buy It Now price of $55k

I can't figure this one out, maybe i am missing something here...

Correct me if im wrong but the first time around they had a starting bid of $10.00 and received 0 bids, now they have a starting bid of $10k...

Why am i not surprised, good luck to him i suppose, although if you look at his feedback (the very last item at the bottom of his feedback page) he must be a good bloke, going on who the buyer was.....
