I thought the real guy behing the userid had his pasword phished. If you looked at his complete auctions through his feedbacks, the stuff he sold and the format of this auctions were completely different. He sold some $20-$40 modern cards, with 5 or 7 day listings (I forget which). meanwhile the high priced card auctions were 1 day listings for vintage high grade cards (such as a 1934 Goudey PSA 8 Gehrig).

This is what these crooks do when they send out the phishing emails asking for ebay userid/passwords. They use the accounts as fake sellers so they can't be tracked back to them. There is no other reason for the phishing for ebay userids that I can think of. If someone used it to buy, they still have to pay before the seller sends them the stuff.
