I saw the page while it was still up; it claimed to be legitimate and not OEM etc, but had a generic image instead of a proper photo and was going for around $30. It definitely looked suspicious... and it seems that Trade Me agreed!

 I saw the Windows 10 auction, was at $33 before got pulled - he claims they're full retails version, not sourced from MSDN etc.
