I'd get a pal to bid the roof off the item and then sit on it for a bit and try to re-sell it. If butt-head scammer keeps trying to bid, have your bud keep out-bidding.
Also, in my listings I've put in disclaimers that say that I won't sell to anyone without at least 95% positive. Not sure what the rules are at eBay's end, but I've not had problems since.
