Hehehe... here's something interesting you guys may want to see: something interesting...
I'm sure somebody's just driving the price up to teach the guy a lesson...
Or maybe it's a JaGEx employee...
Hmm....
*Ponders vacantly*
*Is startled*
Oh, um, well, anyway...

I'm pretty sure they have to... I don't know exactly what legal action eBay can take, but they're pretty serious about hoaxes and such.
Cow said it best... the accounts are JAGeX's property. Getting an RS account, free or members, is like renting it from JAGeX. It's illegal to sell something you don't own, therefore they can be sued.
Those who will remember, will speak fondly of the warm morning breeze.

No-- ebay doesn't require any verified personal information to register, so you can basically register with fakeaccount@hotmail.com or whatever e-mail you want to use. I've seen this kinda stuff happen with other things, where someone intentionally drives the price up to keep the item from selling. There's an interesting little discussion on it here.

You know, that person could get 10 years for credit card fraud. There are any instances where police go undercover to stop people like that. If that person uses members from someone else's credit card, they can go to jail and pay a hefty fine.
Someone should email that link to Jagex
