The one on ebay, XC0348 and this one WS-2080 have the same Argent Data Systems Weather Sensors. In fact, they are "almost" (the control receiver and sensors) look the same except for the WS-2080 which is $30-50 USD cheaper.

The question arises, would it be cheaper to buy this "closed weather system" or to build an "open" weather station? The obvious answer is to buy one BUT since Sparkfun sells the basic weather station sensors for $69 then the only way to have a custom made "open" Maximite weather station is to find this Argent "offshore" supplier and obtain the weather sensors at a very reduced cost. Still searching ...
