Wow! I'd be extremely extremely extremely surprised if it sold at that price.

It is quite high, but extremely rare. How many APs are there and then how many have a turtle drawn on it? If you're a bigger turtle fan than an Usagi fan then this would be the piece for you. Unless of course Stan starts selling APs at conventions then it doesn't matter much.

Wow. 
I don't know how creators can deal with stuff like this, see their stuff flipped so fast (and not just in comics, but any field that has "celebrities").
You'd think the people buying these were true fans, but it seems like so many people buy things signed or drawn, just to flip them and make money... I guess I'm too naive.

It is not extremely rare. We saves a few toys to sell as APs at conventions. They may be higher in price than the regular APs, but certainly not as high as this one on eBay and you may be able to request a character for some that are not pre-drawn.

Holy cow that seller is asking a lot lol!
Aaah it's ebay though, anyone can ask for any price they want... but that doesn't mean they will actually sell it for that amount.
What I'm really surprised about is how many figures that seller has lol!
I looked at the other auctions and they have had (4) exclusive Usagi figures for sale on their account. Looks like they sold one and still have the 3 high priced ones up for sale.
