Ebay scams - a way to expose them?

Nice ported xflow head though if it's true...
But the counter-ad:

Is this the way forward if eBay can't sort themselves out? - maybe the ad is genuine but the text looks like it was lifted from somewhere...

The initial ad is a scam, all the text listed after: "On 03-Jul-15 at 23:00:08 BST, seller added the following information:" is copied and pasted directly from a post on a motorcycle forum in 2012 (third post down on this link): http://www.accessnorton.com/head-flow-testing-t864...
I have reported the ad as fraudulent, frustratingly eBay's reporting function doesn't give you the option to actually type anything, it's all drop-down categories. I can't find an email address for eBay customer service anywhere. Hope others can report this too and the winning bidder doesn't get scammed.

Well spotted
'I did a handful of these heads for...Johnny Herbert and Ayrton Senna...'
SCAM!!!!!!
So the counter-ad is right he must be that seller that was doing the ford parts that were never sent or were substituted for scrap parts - wasn't there something about a scam with an 'ex Senna' FF chassis being advertised from Yorkshire a while back?
Looking at the bids and previous items etc it seems the bidder with no feedback is probably the seller
There's even a contact phone number on the ad - he may get some calls now
