It's probably a [illegal] copy. To be clear, ask them if it comes in the orginal box. I bet not.
Their FB is zero, so it's probably a throwawy ID that they'll dump as soon as the complaints start pouring in about the illegal copies. Only 1 outa 10 will actually complain, so they'll probably sell about 50 before getting kicked off.

I've sent them an email asking about the original box. If you read the description, it doesn't say that it comes in the box. Just that it's new and comes with printable instructions. The seller name was just created on the 4th so I'm sure you're right about it being a dummy name. I'll keep you posted on what happens!

Realize that the seller is from London, United Kingdom, England.
Ask the seller questions such as if it is one that can be used in the U.S. Some software just like anything else is not compatible from one country to another.
Ask if it is a U.S. licensed product in the box from the company itself or if it is a copy.
Ask them why they can offer it for such a low price when it retails in the U.S. for $189.
Ask them if they are an authorized retailer for EQ.
Ask them for references since they are new on eBay.

Not only do they say they are located in London and shipping from Canada but in the description they talk about celebrating the Country's Independance Day with friends and family and would not be shipping until after the 5th. This has signs of trouble all over it! But I did ask them all the above questions so we'll see.
