The eBay seller's English is horrible. Sounds like the same kind of stuff I find in my spam mail folder that originates in Japan and Thailand.

"You want mirrion dorral clazy happy smire?" (Sorry, addicted to Robot Chicken episodes, lately...)

Bear that in mind for the fact that it could be some cheap-o Hong Kong product, regardless of price. That, and they went through a lot of trouble to make the thing look all pretty and bling-blingy, although once you put the boot and shifter on it, you'll probably never see the thing again - it's more for the purpose of visually nabbing buyers than being functional.

The bend of the shifter handle looks pretty funky, too. I wonder how easy it'd be to break one of those...?

Pay another $50 and get a Pro 5.0 or something.

But, any short throw shifter is better than the POS stock shifter as long as it doesn't break.

Looks to me like it's cut from a single block of billet aluminum. How bad could it be?
