Not really the right place for this. We have a sticked thread for fakes (theflightyellz's guide to fakes and searching), which is a more relevant place to ask if something is real or fake. I suggest going there in the future instead of making a dedicated thread to it.
That being said, the price isn't actually $0.99 as there's $20 of shipping added too which adds it up to a fairly standard price... for one booster. For a whole set, I have serious doubts that this is legitimate, as this price is well beyond believable. On top of that there's a platoon of 26 buyers that are calling them a scammer in their negative reviews, all within the last month alone. That's a big red flag to see that many complaints within a month's timeframe, especially since it amounts to just under a complaint a day. There's even more complaints if you look at the neutral reviews too, often which complain about bad packaging or terrible shipping times.
No doubt, this is either a scammer or a seller so bad they might as well be one.

Positive feedback can easily be faked with a few friends, or multiple accounts. You need to keep a better eye on negative and neutral feedback instead of relying only on the positive feedback, especially with a (quite frankly bad looking) 93.5% positive rate. Usually you want a seller in the high 98% or 99%+ range, though be careful of faked 100% rates or alarmingly bad neutral/negative feedback.
In this case, there's just way too much negative feedback claiming that he's a scammer, ships stupidly slowly, or is otherwise terrible at wrapping his packages. None of those bode well for them as a seller.
One dude getting their package slowly once in a while isn't too bad. Mistakes can and will happen, or troubles can arise in the shipping process (like my nearly month old Tomica delivery, still stuck in the Hong Kong post office). This is just too many complaints at once all saying the same things.
