New account, limited resources, perhaps all they had on hand to dupe. Probably only on AH because the lesser quality wouldn't sell through trade channels, where most dupe items have probably been sold until now.
Sell all, collect 12 million gold, buy a better item, dupe seven times, repeat.
They were all bought out within about ten minutes of that post being made, like I said probably by the curious. The hex codes for each bow are identical.

Well they should be, the hexcodes just tell the stats, and if the stats are all the same....
I think this might be the product of the glitch that has been going around; A lot of people have been reporting multiple of the same items dropping, down to the name and exact stats. It seems to be in rare cases but I don't think this is actually someone duping.
This is not a case of elites dropping 2 identical items, the "dupe" ( if that's what it was ) was most likely AH based, like the cancel buyout and buying for bid hacks earlier, which involved editing client side info and WORKED.
I say this because the items all were posted and had expiry times IDENTICAL, so I guess some1 has found, AH exploit number 3.
If this is duping, if this is anything but a glitch, don't you people think it's odd that only one item appears this way? One bow....out of thousands of items that people could be duping?
Confirmed by multiple sources on the forums before players in their curiosity bought them all out. Each bow had identical stats, some now on RMAH.

Yea, idk why someone would dupe and risk their account for 2m gold.

The method is also being 'sold' on D2JSP, although to trust anything from there would be a sketchy proposition at best.
There's also a post where some1 compares the id codes just to confirm, the item stats are identical.
What make's you claim that all the posters are wrong?
This "dupe" is yet to be proven or unproven conclusively.

1k+ dmg, crit dmg bonus, attack speed
How is that a bad item?
It's a glitch. Don't get all excited.
