wth? I've never had that problem ever on ebay. Guess you were unlucky or something. I've always had either multi-region DVDs or the UK releases.
They arn't bootlegged or pirated either. Because they are mostly always still in their original packaging, with the plastic sealed bag and everything, and all the official DVD logo's you can't burn into a DVD at home.
The reason they go for so cheap on ebay, is because the stuff is either bought really cheaply from someone, or it's stolen, or it's bought through the main producers rather than off the shelf. Buying through the main vendors means you have to own a company or some sort in order to buy straight from the warehouse, but you get your stuff like 50% cheaper. So that's what people do, and re-sell them for a little more on Ebay as a way of making money.
Also, people balance out everything. They will sell some box sets or DVD at no fixed price, with a starting bid of like 0. Whilst with the other half they sell it's at a fixed price, so that they don't lose money if the bid for the ones which started at 0 don't get very high.
Oh and i've always had both the option of Dub or Sub in ALL my DVDs. It always starts off with Dubbed as default though, so have you actually checked your language selection screen on the DVDs? You probably have, and you've just been very unlucky =/
But again, i've never had that problem before.
Oh btw, the thing about the American site. I just don't find it as easy to navigate as the UK one. Try both sites without using the search engine and you will see what i mean. For instance, the american one dosn't seem to have a section for anything like the GBA, but the UK does. etc.
