This is selling for R$ 1,000.00 (one thousand reais!). That's roughly $460. Some months ago I purchased in this same site a very nice HP-33C for exactly one-tenth of that...

It's in my city, Curitiba-Brazil. No, I am not the seller :-)

Seems a bit high (read ridiculously high) for a machine with so glaring a cosmetic blemish.

By what I've read, the seller says what looks like a blemish is due to bad photography. Anyway, the price is really ridiculously high; even more considering average wages here are rather lower...
