You're looking up the wrong IP address.  If you reverse the octets,
you must append ".in-addr.arpa"

You've got the IP address the right way round in this one.

nslookup of 66.135.209.220 returns:

Name:    mxsmfpool23.ebay.com
Address:  66.135.209.220

nslookup of 220.209.135.66 returns:

Name:    actkyo142066.adsl.ppp.infoweb.ne.jp
Address:  220.209.135.66

If you look up the correct IP, you see that it has an eBay address.
Likewise, a whois lookup confirms eBay.
