Mark,
i assume you're referring to me, since i mentioned alerting ebay to keyword spamming. i wouldn't do it to spite you, i'd do it because it's a violation of ebay rules. if there were no bids, i'd actually contact you first and let you know about the violation. if there were bids, i'd contact ebay. the reason being, because if there are bids its a heckuva lot harder to change the auction title (to remove the keyword spam). ebay wouldn't kick you off, they'd warn you. and as you said, you honestly didn't know. in fact, i'm pretty sure they refund your listing and insertion fees so you can relist it with the correct title. you lose nothing, except for the time it takes you to relist the item.
