Unfortunately this seller appears to have done this intentionally. I got an email from a reader of this board telling me that he looked back and saw where the seller, ytaka22, had not only sold Richard the elephant strike, but he also sold the common O'Sheas donkey to another buyer for $320. He bought both strikes on ebay for about $15 each. I confirmed this with a little research of my own.

I gave the guy the benefit of the doubt when first replying to Richard's post. Now it looks like it was not a mistake after all.
