It is the typical bullshit listing that you get on eBay at the moment. My good friend AussieF was criticizing newbies over on RS saying he had no sympathy for them - but the trouble is listings like this are confusing for new starters.
The seller has covered his back by stating that it is a repro card and that the figure has paint loss (although I agree with Todd that the staff looks repro) - however there are so many misleading uses of 'genuine' and 'vintage' that people are bound to be confused - especially people looking for presents
This is the thread on RS about the Boba Fett - I agree that people do need to do some research before they splash the cash - but sellers like these muddy the waters

Mad innit. I can only come up with 3 explanations -
1. Stupidity and more money than sense
2. Someone has it on their Christmas list and a clueless partner/relative with more money than sense is buying it
3. Shill bidding

The seller is clever and idiots fall for it.
When you are bidding/spending that much money READ THE ENTIRE LISTING

Maybe the buyer is new in the star wars universe, and can't see it is custom :?
I remember when I was new I had a lot of repro weapons for years before I found out they were repro
But yes the seller is smart and people should read everything also the small letters at the bottom of the page.
