That would be typical... ;D

Well, I have to admit I did like the pickup config on that ebay bass!

Although, the original EB-2D is not bad at all with the choke bypass mod.  That really helped mine get some balls in the midrange.  Before, it was either too devoid of mids ("normal" mode), or too devoid of bass/low-mids (choked/baritone mode) - just no happy medium... and the placement of the bridge pickup didn't lend itself to filling the void.

The more I think about it, the more I agree with Rob that it's a counterfeit.

As for it being worth what someone is willing to pay, that's true if the product is as described. This one isn't.
