I fat fingered this post. It was supposed to include the link, the photo. and that the seller has another vise also. I've already got more vices and vises than I need.

What is up with the jaws? They seem to have a 'bird mouth' shape on one end? And are there slots for the bolts that attach the jaws to the body?

Those jaws look like they were bodged from a different vise. You can see the remains of counterbored mounting holes across the cut off ends.

But, for $60, if the body isn't in too bad shape, it might still be a decent buy.

Wasn't Victoria, a Brit machine tool company?
