This is pure forgery.  Therefore, eBay will be broken after July 4th 2004 if 
they elect not to fix this issue.

they will have to do some kind of sender rewriting.

besides, there are already many MTAs that will reject mail that purports
to be the local domain, if the mail is coming from outside.  this is
broken, yes, but it shows how desperate people are.

this sort of thing may break sooner than july 4th since that's only a
recommended softdeny->deny date; it's up to cyberglobe.net to announce
SPF policy.
