Ebay AEM Wideband Kit for $22. Super cheap or super scam?!

Well I have a wideband gauge packed in the garage some where, but I was browsing for a replacement O2 sensor when I stumbled across them gem:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/AEM-30-4110...hZ6K9-&vxp=mtr

I assume it's a scam, but I figured dealing with the paypal dispute over the $22 is worth the gamble so I bought it haha. I'll let you guys know what shows up!

Yeah haha, No good news. It's been marked as shipped with no tracking number. I messaged the seller a few hours ago and asked if he had the tracking number, no reply yet haha. Of all the things you could try to scam people for on E-Bay, why would you do it for 22 bucks haha. Any ways, should be an easy enough paypal dispute.

Dispute it through Ebay and then try Paypal if Ebay doesn't get it worked out.

I will

I'm not worried about it, PayPal is always super good about the disputes. It will be easy to won if they don't even have a tracking number.
