Yeah that is just ebay spam. They are trying to get you to put the new auction on on your watch list by pretending it's the same item, but it's not the same one, just the same thing.

When the auction closed the seller get's a notice that says something like: "Do you wish to sell another item like this one?"

Which allows the seller to relist an identical item with the same ad format. Since the ads take some time to put in sellers usually use that option when they have multiple items to sell but it's not the same item each time.

Go to sellers items, then click on completed items on the left, then enter Sabiki as a search and you will see he actually sold that last one for $40, but it's a high price and out of the 23 he's sold most of them have sold for right around $30.

If you then check his feedback you can see he's got no negatives for those sales which means they actually got them. Sellers that back out of deals always get negative feedback.

Usually only rookies do it and they learn fast that people complain, because it's not only a shitty way to do business but technically against the rules to back out of auctions once they have completed.
