Do people actually pay that sort of price for a secondhand tank? Or do they never get sold?

Looking at the sellers other items I suspect it's a currency conversion error.
Honda CB500 K1 (new pit dug out ready)
Honda CB400 four super sport (first money pit)

Nope, not a currency conversion error by the looks of it, that's the sort of prices they ask for their parts 🙄🙄🙄🙄 but exchange rates / duties / taxes etc certainly don't help.
