Is that price serious, surely some sort of joke. Why would anybody want to pay that much?

What's the return policy if it doesn't work?

Looking at the seller's history I'd say that's a hacked account.

The description explains why there is such a high buy it now price and that they'd accept > £2,000 + VAT

[DocJock]

Reading that I'd say the £2K+ is what they'd charge for arranging licences/shipping rather than purchase.

It says 'returns accepted', so you could always send it back if you don't like it when you've tried it on

Everyone bidding must supply a name, address and phone number????

Yep, hacked account.

Looks like it's hacked.

Tu-95s were built for about 30yrs, some of those in service are younger than Tornados that intercept them and are scheduled to stay in service till 2040. So that also makes it unlikely at that price.

When I got it on my screen the price on the left hand side was something like £10,000,000,000. Hence my thinking it was a joke.
