“Obviously”, they entered the value in EUR thinking it was TRY, no?
Hmm, with a few zeroes too many as it seems TRY 6000 would be EUR 379

It was (maybe still is, I haven't checked again) a European store and the
item description reveals the intent.

Oh my, that’s small and blurry.
Seeing that or having the sense to go look at the store was too much for me last
night

Why do you think it was a child? There could well be a confused seller wondering
why the 6000 brick separators they thought they listed at 1 Euro each are not
selling.

Well I do not, it was just a warning. Children don't have their frontal cortex
yet developed so it's a bit ordinary for them to go for such extreme pricing.
(too low or too high)
My son too sells some stuff in my store, I know this from him

He even has too much unnecessary information about one particular shop famous
for it's prices & variety.

Given the rest of the store's pricing is fairly normal it appears to be an
error rather than a child not knowing about pricing running the store.
