In his defense, it doesn't actually SAY "Tektronix" on it anywhere, except in the old-style logo, which is not so easy to read.

Man! All he wants is a chain hoist in exchange (US made, though), and the scope has the front cover, probes, accessories, and all the knobs are in good nick! If I were on the left coast, and had a chain hoist lying around, I jump on this.

Keyword spamming? One guy that I used to know included the phrase "not
HP calculator" in the title of all of his E-bay listings so that his
auction listings would show up everytime anyone searched for the words "HP"
or "calculator".

Amazon actually attempted to take the on-line auction market from eBay way back in 1999, and threw in the towel only two years later:
