I think what we all have been saying is eBay sellers can misrepresent what they're selling, both in images and text.
Assuming that's not true in this case, I would definitely consider what the seller is offering. However, I would look for a (reliable) source other than eBay first, even if I had to pay a bit more.
I am concerned about the 7500 RPMs rating. Mechanically, most stock Mopar engines red-line around 6000 RPMs so 7500 RPMs is a bit excessive for a stock engine. However, the rating in this case may be to ensure reliability. (Ignition systems sometimes misfire when you approach 6000 RPMs ... if the ICM is capable of handling 7500 RPMs, it's less likely to misfire at lower RPMs.)
(If you routinely run your stock engine in the 5000-6000 range, you're shortening the engine's life and risking damage.)

I agree with Griff, investigate before you buy. Especially when it costs $200!
I just posted it because I never saw that newer technology ICM before.
I've been aware of efforts to produce a 'new and improved' ICM for at least three decades. Over that period, I haven't heard a lot about the result of those efforts. IMHO, this is due to most people preferring to stay with something that resembles stock OEM in appearance and performance.
