i doubt they could prove it was a fighter, it was probably removed from craigslist just cause a bunch of people did similar to what happened here "omg, he's dubbed, he's a fighter! shame!" and then reported the post. a similar thing happened in minnesota when a guy posted some oriental games on there. he didn't fight, but he was well versed in their bloodlines and knew he could get that kind of money for them. dubbing is required in show, and is very important in areas with harsh winters to prevent frostbite.
i didn't see the bird before it was removed. at that low of a price though it is likely he was being sold solely on the track record of the bloodlines that went into him. considering that it was posted on craigslist the person selling it probably didn't know much about it and was looking to make a quick buck.
if ya think i'm nuts, out of all the gamefowl i own only was was proven prior to my owning him, the rest were not. cost of my untested broodfowl, price determined on quality of the bird and most importantly its bloodlines: $200 for the rooster and $100 each on the hens on average.
remember the old saying regardless of what sort of bird it is you're looking at "the animal is only worth the pricetag if there's some sucker out there willing to pay it"
