Doesn't look like the second lens is a non-VR, the ad does say it is the VR. However the seller is most likely selling you a grey market item, meaning it wasn't supposed to be sold here in the US, and they are saving money by selling you a lens with a non-US serial number.
Opinions vary on this, a lot.. but me personally, I would never buy a grey market item. Nikon can and often will refuse to service them, so your stuck dealing with the seller for any sort of warranty, that's if they will do anything at all.
But of course after the warranty period expires, then your stuck. If you have a problem with the lens after that, it's very possible that no Nikon authorized repair center will repair it even out of warranty. For me that's not worth saving a couple of extra bucks on the thing up front.
