Once was a Transformers 2007 DVD listed for $5,000. Not signed, nothing special. It wasn't even a Special Edition set, 'twas the bare bones single disc.

It's a fraud.

The exessive price is a way to NOT SELL the item.
He's using this listing to advertise all of his stuff so he can sell them OUTSIDE OF EBAY. If he's willing to fraud Ebay to avoid all fees, just imagine what kind of services he can offer you.

Please be a responsible Ebay user and report his bandit ass to the Ebay mods.

Another malpractice are the "placeholder" It's written "placeholder" and some random keywords, and it sell for 1000000$. In reality, THERE'S NOTHING FOR SALE. The seller just use one of Ebay's many "list free" promotions to "hold his place" for future sales.
Unless a buyer is stupid enough to throw a million for an empty spot, such listings are a big waste of space and time.
Report them too.

How about 10000$ for a deluxe 2007 Brawl?
It may be a mistake or a "placeholder".
But if the guy is serious, it would be so funny!

EDIT:
At least, the seller was quick to respond to my mail:

Dear kanrabat,

Beat that!
No fraud, just a mistyped price. Looking at his other items, he likes having them end in AU$ xx,99. I guess he missed a comma in this one...

The baseplate that each figure can be displayed on has their name stuck on a small Autobot or Decepticon logo. I think charging an extra $4975 is a bit excessive. And I second your Singapore comment.
