I think they are really low end Walmart junk if I'm not mistaken. Aluminum DH suspension fork? That sounds like a marketing gimmick. You won't go to foxshox.com and see them marketing their stuff as a "DH aluminum suspension fork"... and if it was good they would list the travel, the brand, etc. The shifters and derailleurs are low end, appears to be Tourney maybe? In any case its the stuff you find on a $75 Walmart special, or a very low end comfort bike. The fact no brand names are listed with the components is very suspect... and 1.5" rims with a 2.125 tire are not typical downhill spec's really.
Just an FYI, you can't link to Imagestation files usually... just upload it to your post.

ebay is getting to be a crooked place if you don't know what your doing. Once in awhile i check out wallmarts bikes just for giggles and i seen a "honda" mtbike for i belive 100. i seen the same one on ebay with promax disc brakes on there for $195
That did confuse me why it said Alumnium DH fork nothing has a name.
I hope everyone who reads this will see that looks can be deciving and do your homework before you buy.
