Ebay let's you message sellers and buyers but it doesn't let you include an email address in your message.
The warning prompt:
johndoe at gmail dot come doesn't work either.
Presumably they do this to prevent users from circumventing their checkout process. But I'm just trying to get in touch with the guy on the other end of the transaction.
Is there any way to communicate email addresses via eBay message?

However, you could use http://scr.im or http://tinymailto.com/ which converts your email in to a standard HTTP URL.
e.g.
They also offer the ability to have a vanity URL rather than a randomly generated one.
