Sorry to see that people got burned. As tempting as some deals seem ya gotta use the old adage of "if it seems to good to be true then it probably is". My second rule is if their English is butchered in the ad it's usually a good idea to move along and find something else.

A simple search of motorcycle jacks/lifts prices should tell you that there’s something not right about that ad.
That being said if you don’t see there’s something wrong with that ad then pull the trigger.
Just make sure you use a credit card so you at least will have some remote possibility of getting your money back.
Don’t beat yourself up too much though I once made a drunk Facebook ad purchase for a half helmet.
When I finally got it I was amazing what a POS the helmet was.
I believe a cut open gallon milk jug would probably provide better protection.
However I was sober enough to use PayPal with a credit card for the purchase.
It took me about two months to get my money back but PayPal did refund it.
