583€ for the standard fall apart version with instant self-destruct gears and a board that will burn out before the battery is flat, what a bargain, still he has managed to sell 16 to fools

If you click the '16 sold' you will see the price was really 123.99. Still too high IMHO but more realistic.

I do'nt think it is a typo.

If you look at their current listings they have the same low end model listed for $295, ,$549, and $724. More like they are spamming different price ranges looking for suckers or unsuspecting people. Most would buy their $125 model but there is probably a wife or two out there that has heard from their husband say, "I wish I had an RC tiger (meaning Tam) but they are like $800." They hit ebay and see one for a little less and think they are getting a deal.
