I think the bidder assumed he'd get all 15...but the auction seems to only be for ONE. Oops!

Yeah, I don't see any indication that it's for 15 of them. Empty box type of auction :p

Look at the bid history, looks like the seller got an alternate name oli kikey and bid it up at the end from 230 to 2335(on purpose or via autobid), except he managed to trick someone into beating his crazy bid(or his autobid got maxed). Either that or oli kikey also fell for it.

Did anyone see the Family Guy where Peter bids on a picture of a boat?
Some dipstick finally buys it for 50 grand.

I think this is very similar.

EDIT: Yup. He is selling one at a time. He is just showing the big stack to make people nuts.
I wonder how many days he'll be able to sell them individually before eBay makes him remove the picture of the stack.

If you also look at the bid history, it looks as though someone messed up with the decimals on their bid. They prob meant to put in something like 235.50 and messed up. That sounds more likely. How an autobid jumped higher, i dont know, maybe they were both bidding at the same time.
