If you are browsing the site and looking at items to buy or perhaps bidding, then you're fine. Use Mozilla, Firefox, Konqueror, Opera, whatever and you'll be fine. I browse ebay all the time on Linux. I don't trust Windows and especially IE, so I don't go there with either if I can help it. I usually use Opera because I can open several categories and look at many pages as I go, simply by middle-clicking the link to it. It then opens in the background for when I get to it. If a page sucks, i mouse-gesture it away (r, l, r). But that's me.
It is true that ebay doesn't support Linux apps, so an auction-watcher, perhaps used by a power seller, might not have support (but someone has already made one...). If you're like me and want to buy and sell on ebay, all you need is a browser with 128 bit or higher encryption capability, which means almost any GUI browser (and probably lynx-ssl as well)
