I bet it's real and the seller is GTG as you can get the same deal here: http://www.botachtactical.com/ai13t1wmosp.html
It is a good deal and the mount is not that bad. If you don't like it sell it and put that money toward what ever mount you want..
I seem them sell for $50.00.

OP: I went back through my ebay purchase history and I had bought an LMT rear BUIS from that same seller last year, as did a couple-three other members from this forum. All of us decided the sight was likely authentic.

I think we (or I) decided that probably it was a contract overrun or something, and with the wars winding down the vendor has excess inventory that won't be going to the sandbox or something like that.

So, there is a very good chance it's the real deal.

There are also ways to tell if an Aimpoint is authentic or not. Just do a search.

Be the guinea pig and let us know.

You can normally find them on the EE here for less than that.

I bought one from that seller on ebay.....altatac and botach tactical are one in the same....i called aimpoint and confirmed it was not a fake....I had it 3 days after i paid for it....The picture in the auction is of an H-1 That is why it has white lettering, but the actual sight you are buying is a t-1 and does not have white letters. I have had mine for two weeks....I have left it on the entire time.....I have only shot the rifle to zero, but i havnt had any problems and have been VERY pleased.....actually considered buying another one.

And there it is

I had a buddy get ripped on a fake one off ebay, So many folks out there faking stuff he finally got his cash back after a big run around just got to be careful nowadays
