to answer the question,  no, it is not allowed on ebay and the mame trademark prohibits it with use of the name mame or the logo.  if you report it the auction would likely be removed.

FYI, there's a sticky at the top of the forum with the rules.  The B/S/T forum's rules specifically state on the third line:
Quote
No reporting of MAME/roms ebay auctions.  Just report them to ebay.

There's a reason the topic's title says "read before you post"  ;)
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

I thought you couldn't report these to eBay anymore? There tattle-tale  ;D link now states that only the copyright holder may report copyright violations.

Otherwise, I'd report every-one (and their mothers) for the sales of Tick Animated DVDs (mostly ripped from VHSs they borrowed off the web).  For one thing, the quality sucks (I know, I encoded several of them)... and second its discouraging Fox from releasing a true DVD set of the series.
