Its an IPS Display; ~300 NITS from various reviews.
The ebay store is notorious for selling dented, scratched units with mediocre battery. Do not expect pristine condition refurbished units as you would usually get in from manufacturers.
I bought Acer Nitro 5 from them, and the battery turned out to be faulty. It was a little over the return window, they wouldn't honor it. Not to mention the unit was noticeably used and scratched

It's not mentioned in the eBay description, and I didn't see the typical spot on the keyboard where it would read your fingerprint.
EDIT: If you scroll down to the description there's a a line that shows when the description was last updated : Last updated on Nov 28, 2022 23:49:36 PST and there's also a link there you can click to "View all revisions"
Looks like it was nothing more than an update of the quantity available

That said, that kind of behavior is almost exclusively with 3rd party sellers. Companies with a brand to protect don't want to be associated with this particular kind of fraud, because it erodes trust in the brand. Considering the liberal return policy relative to typical Ebay purchases, I bought this. I'll put it through some tests, and return if it's not satisfactory in any way.

Mind suggesting a few other tests that you intend to cover?

Their review at least does some sort of battery test vs ultrabookreview seems to be kind of speculating
