From Glavkosmos, the commercial arm of Russia's state space corporation Roscosmos (via Twitter):
Have you ever thought of having a real Soyuz MS descent module as a showpiece in your collection or exhibition? Now you have a unique chance to purchase it! The descent module No. 738 of the Soyuz MS-08 mission is now available on the Glavkosmos web portal!
More from Glavkosmos' unified product and component portal:
The descent module No. 738 of the Soyuz MS-08 mission is available for purchase. This lander may become an excellent exhibition showpiece for any public or private exhibition dedicated to aerospace. It is the property of the State Space Corporation Roscosmos and with the consent of the proprietor is offered to a potential customer.

The Russian Soyuz MS-08 crewed spacecraft, launched on March 21, 2018 at 20:44 Moscow time (17: 44 UTC) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, delivered to the International Space Station three crew members of the ISS-55/56 expedition: spacecraft commander, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Artemyev, and two flight engineers, NASA astronauts Andrew Feustel and Richard Arnold. On October 4, 2018, at 14: 45 Moscow time (11: 45 UTC), the descent module, which is offered to the potential customers, successfully landed in Kazakhstan, 146 kilometers south-east of the city of Zhezkazgan, and returned Artemyev, Faustale and Arnold to Earth. The duration of the space flight of the crew of the ISS-55/56 expedition was 197 days.

Price to be disclosed/negotiated upon contact with Glavkosmos.

If that is an image of the actual capsule interior, the Neptune ME IDS (main control panel) is a facsimile
