    He's changed the price from $14 to $100 now.
    I added him to chat and he didn't really make it sound like it was an honest mistake, but gave me "why do you care", "get a life" and "it's not illegal, is it" as counter-arguments. Sounds quite deliberate to me.

    You can price any item for any amount of money you want. This item shows very clearly that it has been renamed in the description. So for someone to buy this for its inflated price knowing that it has been renamed would be their own fault.
    There is no scam here.
