The seller is probably hoping some rich, drunk guy decides to buy his girlfriend a present.

The seller has had 18 negative feedbacks in the last year. LOL
What happens if it never even shows up at the door. This would be hard to explain to my wife.

I'm thinking about hand painting my bike and letting it go for half that price.

That is a pretty niche group of consumers this bike is going after. Unfortunately the only women I know that would spends 50k on a bike would certainly not want butterflies and crap all over it. In fact, you can get a similar paint scheme on the Diamondback Lady's Vital for like 300 bucks.

Thats kind of liek asking why a famous painting costs millions of dollars (its unique) whenever you have something that is one of only like ~30ish no duh its going to cost alot. A bike like that is more for display then riding anyways....the price isnt for quality but for what the bike represents.
