Looks to be the right pics, the serial number picture matches the description. I think it's just ignorance and wishful thinking, and hopefully not someone trying to pull a fast one.

Here's another one - for the mere bargain price of $750!!! Worth way more though, don't you know. His loss is our gain!!! Notice no pictures of what a mere $750 will get you...
http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/atq/2829484034.html
or...decided I would cut/paste the ad - since when it goes off Craig's List it can't be read anymore:
---Immaculate Condition...worth a lot more....I Didn't want to sell it, however I am expecting a baby and the extra money will help immensely...Trust me this is my loss and your gain but its for the greater good! Thanks for looking!
This is almost BRAND new believe it or not...they go for $700 to $1000 on ebay used...It comes with original manual oil and sewing kit as well at foot pedal...Again this is in great shape and a perfect gift for a seamstress or antique collector.
Email for more info!---
