This seller is some kind of estate liquidator I'm convinced of that. Some of the clocks he sold could be traced by serial numbers and the original buyer has since passed away. Again, this is my speculation based on the deceased and where this seller is located, both in Northern New Jersey, Metro NY area.
As far as the sex toys, who knows maybe they bought out one of those seedy places in Times Square.
