Just a heads up--there's a "Robert Becker" with a Jensen for sale on Facebook. It's a crook with poor English who has somehow cloned Becker's account, so don't be tempted. Only non-refundable means of payment are accepted, naturally.

First thing to do when you see a too good to be true listing on Facebook is check recent or current eBay listings. They often use the same title/description, word for word.
