Unfortunately I didn’t notice the lack of posts in the last 4 years until after I paid.
I am either going to get a cheap torch, have to fight to get my money back, or pay for a lesson about being more cautious.

Unsurprisingly this was indeed a scam. I ended up emailing the “seller” through PayPal and asking them to ship the coral or refund my money and they emailed me back saying that what I bought was a Best Buy gift card and that they had sent me the code for and there was nothing to ship. I’m guessing this was a a lie to not need to show shipping information to PayPal during a dispute.
I filed a dispute with PayPal and explained everything, and added screenshots of our conversation. PayPal instantly found in my favor and refunded the money.

So I learned a lesson about being more cautious and it didn’t even cost me any money.

Darn, I was rooting for ya. Glad you were able to quickly get your money back. Hopefully the mods can ban the account. Not sure how that works here.

Some part of me held out hope that it was legitimate for way longer than I should have.
I believe they have already banned the account. I can’t see the persons account information anymore.
