Heuer Super Autavia GMT *PIC*

So I was cruising eBay and came across this Heuer Super Autavia GMT.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Heuer-Super-Autavia-GMT-Valjoux-Racing-Chronograph-Clock-Watch-Timer-Rally-Rare-/201312846765?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&rmvSB=true

He is asking $15K!!! I am no expert with Super Autavia's, but I am guessing this is a bit much. Especially since this guy bought it for $2800 a month ago on eBay. He just polished it, and according to his listing, he hasn't serviced it, but he has such a huge markup.

Here is the original listing he bought it from:

Assuming this $15k price is absurd, why do people like this waste their time?
