See here.

Note, however, that only the owner of the site can make the request, which in this case would be eBay. I doubt you are going to be able to get them to do so. Once something is on the net, assume it will be there forever.

I do not think so, aside from asking eBay. But even if that works, there are going to be copies still somewhere, like www.archive.org. Like I said, once something is on the 'net, assume it will be there forever.

Getting cached copies removed from Google is very difficult. You would have to submit every single page that they have cached to be removed. Even then if you are not the webmaster of the site, it won't work. I would expect that you would be ignored in your requests to have the cached pages removed by both Ebay and Google.

Curious about why this is such an issue?

If it's that important, it's time to change your e-mail address.
