[Amps] Can some explain this curious eBay auction

Welcome to the world of "Audiophoolery", where the perception of fact is above
fact itself. The world of $500 AC Line Cords, Xfmrs wound with Silver Wire and
other such things. I once saw an ad in Opera News for a Mono Amp with a pair
of 211's (AFAICR), that sat on a chassis hogged out of a block of
solid Aluminum.
The price ... a mere $125,000. Oh, you want Stereo ...
