Because the e-bay seller is a moron.
If you go to the german Amazon page that is linked in the post above yours, you can see the picture of the box the reader comes in.

On the [back side of a] box they list pdf, epub, fb2, txt, html, rtf, pdb, lrc, mobi, djvu, chm, umd, doc formats.
They also list display as front-lit pearl e-ink.

The German reviewers complain that the browser and Internet is slow and that it has no play store. I do not understand from translate.google.com whether you can install *.apk files "out of box". He only complains that with missing play store you would have to side-load apps. If you can side-load your own apps, it might be a *very* interesting device for this price.
