That's the 4th listing from overture.
When you mouseover the listing, you get the redirect through overture.com.

What is so special about the third listing that makes it stand out over the first three?

Yeah, but if I was bidding 1,2, or 3 (Which I am), I would be pissed.

You really think people are more likely to click on a start here listing, nearly completely devoid of any description, totally off of the main results block?
Would be interesting to see stats on that.

I don't know why it is there but it caught my eye.
