And this is why you Never use Gift unless you know the person you are dealing with and\or the amount of the sale is small enough that you will not miss it  - not worth trying to save the fees or get a lower price for the item as you lose any chance of getting your money back - Since you told them it was a gift so there is no expectation of you receiving anything from the person you sent the gift to. To send that much money to someone you don't know that has no other items for sale and only 6 past dealings with Ebay is asking to be ripped off !

I dunno.  Nothing in the prior feedback or listings really sets of my BS detector.
There is probably more to this story.

Perhaps but if you bought something and the seller then told you he'd give you a lower price if you sent payment through paypal as a "Gift" I'm pretty sure your BS detector would be sounding at that point !

Probably the scarcity. No one's getting ripped off buying joysticks.

Never understood that.  It takes, what, 5 minutes to get a dummy email and attach an ebay account?

Slippy, I know this is difficult to believe, but nearly half the population is below average.

Well, that of course depends on whether you refer to mean, median or mode average  ;)

The IQ curve is normal.  Mode, mean, and median are identical.
