Hey guys

I'm looking to buy a secondhand JBL bluetooth speaker for my mom. Thing is, some of the listings on FB marketplace seem too good to be true. There are people listing JBL Charge 4's for R800, and even R450!! And there are also listings for JBL Extreme 3's for under a grand. The Charge 4 retails for R2.5-3k, and the Extreme 3 for over R4k. What's going on here, are these fake speakers or something? It's just the amount of cheap listings that is suspicious. Attached a screenshot of some of the listings below - apologies for the dropbox link, not sure how to insert an offline image here.
