Well, to me this looks more like the usual EBay problem with ',' and '.'

Remember, in Europe, the floating point is a comma. So I assume that
guy was just entering 10,00 Dollar, which got converted to 10,000.00
I had this already twice happening and instead of entering 4 Euro 50,
(4,50) I suddenly had 4500 Euros as bid. This part of ebay is quite
faulty.
