That's the most realistic crap-o-phone that I have seen.

There's some genuine material there- about 50 0/0 Columbia. Looks convincing at first glance.

I see it did not sell. No surprise there.

When you go in and look at the original listing it shows 0 bids and when you look for it in completed listings, it shows up in red, which means it did not sell. Looks also like the listing was only up for one day, so either the lister took it down (perhaps when somebody called them on it) or it was reported and eBay pulled it.
