You really don't think eBay knows what's going on? Of course they do, but they've clearly decided it's better to let bidders get pissed off by the practice than to piss off sellers by trying to do something about it. Sellers pay the bills, the way they must look at it.

If you report it and there's proof of refusing to complete the sale they will do something about it. I don't know if it takes a few complaints or only one serious one, but they do suspend sellers for not completing a sale. The guy I had back out sent the info in an email through their system, and when I asked if they wanted me to forward the email to them they said I didn't have to and that not only could they see it, they were looking at it while we spoke. That seller ended up being suspended and so far hasn't returned, at least under the same name.
