The "red flag" on this one for me would be "payment methods: Other"

If they don't accept paypal, you have to ask yourself why. And there
are not many "good" answers.

The reason for not accepting PayPal would be the possibility of a
charge-back, that I've heard costs the merchant $30. If walk-in
merchants accept Visa/MC, and accept the charge-back possibility, I am
unable to guess why an eBay seller should be any different.

There weren't any bids on that one! That's why there's no final
price.The opening bid was set by the seller.

And to add to the evidence (like there is any more needed....) the
picture shows a 296, not a 396 as described in the text...
