that it is only available for a mod.
In my area there are a few scummy lego people and they do some rotten things
on craiglistmlike flag everything lego for sale or make a low ball offer, then
flag it so others wont see it, etc. There is also someone that posts lego for
sale and then arranges a time and cancels at the last minute.

But that's not the case here... When an item is reported, it stays available
until Admin reviews it. And I'm sure if someone tries to abuse the system (repeatly
report items that do comply with listing policy) sooner or later Admin
will take reactions on it.
  
Keep authority away from the users

But the mods/admins can't be everywere, you can't expect them to review every
item on sale
look at the number of sets/parts/figs/etc. It is simply impossible.

That's why the site allows people to 'report' items...(but without harm, as it
stays available untill Admin takes the descision).

  voted yes, but I would want it to be moderators just like everything else,

Actually Ken,
everybody can report items when they are in violation of the listings ToS

  people will make a fake account just to flag stuff

there is no need (see above line)

   so if there were a few moderators that could flag stuff while shopping around I don't see a problem

Any item that gets reported is not removed at once, it is Admin who makes the
final call on that (and he only).

Items can be reported on this page:
http://www.bricklink.com/problemInventory.asp

What Kintzi is suggesting is a quick link towards that page (and a backwards
link to the page you were on, after reporting the item).
