It's the FA*, and seems to be a good copy!

Seller is a pro photorapher, has a five star seller rating on the back of 28 transactions.

For some reason I can't see on mobile but it works on my desktop. Weird. I also tried searching for it and couldn't find it with marketplace on my mobile.
Nearly 3K is probably about right. The Sony A mount SSM versions of the 300 f2.8 go between $2800-4700 depending on condition (dog to mint+).
Fun find and hard to imagine owning. I'd be afraid to use it!

Definitely an item you'd add to your Home and Contents insurance.

The beautiful pictures it would take, though - I have an old FD Canon 300mm f2.8, it's fantastic.

I think on the phone app it defaults to local items for sale, doesn't it? Not sure how you even change it.

Pretty sure that baby has been up on ebay for some time (months?) now, as well.
There are usually a few listed on ebay at any given time, although that one is at a better price, and in north america. There's also a sigma 300 2.8 on there right now for similar money.
