This is the most expensive Kilij I have seen on e-bay EVER

What is happening? There is no indication that the blade is special (super-wootz!), no provenance, no dating, no attribution to a historic figure.
The scabbard, although very nice, looks 19th century, as is the flatttened handle .
Was it feeding frenzy or am I missing something important?
