It's done to increase the chance of their listing getting viewed. If you're selling a crappy old GI Joe, odds are people won't visit your listing, but if you add "rise of cobra" to the title, people who are looking for ROC items will be curious and might click on the auction to see what it is.

They can't! Illegal. Its called search and listing Manipulation and if you report it eBay will remove all their auctions at their cost.

It's not right but people are jsut wanting to get their items out there. There's people on the boards here that have sale threads that are 5 pages long that say "Best of 80's DVD Boxset" in the title but if you open it there's nothing even from the boxset in the listing. It's just a advertising tactic that happens
