Default MAF Sensor too good to be true...?

I just stumbled on a "Genuine" Toyota MAF Sensor (22204-22010) on eBay for $21.50.
Any thoughts? It's listed as NEW and ships from Florida. I get the feeling it's an overseas seller but that doesn't necessarily mean it's not genuine...

Not sure but mine doesn't look like that. I doubt it's genuine but it might be.

I should've mentioned in the original post 22204-22010 is an LS430 part. I presented the question on both the 400 and 430 side.

he must be an overstock dealer, every thing he has for sale is new, and all are major brands

Watches, electric razor parts, golf accessories, laptop parts, skateboard stickers, fidget spinners...
Obviously buying items in bulk lots for pennies on the dollar. Who knows if parts are refurbished or new? I guess for $21.50 it MIGHT be worth the risk. A decent aftermarket MAF from Rockauto is around 70 bucks.

How do you know if yours is bad? You get a CEL?
I have 238K miles on my 99LS, that part never changed.
I have original starter too, need to replace it soon, I know I will have problems when it gets cold ( intermittent start first thing in the morning).
