Activating by phone wouldn't be the issue but you never know how some buyer intends to do it...

If they run into the anal retentive store tech he will look to see if the phone is a verizon phone before he even checks the esn and tell the guy he can't activate it.

Just make sure you tell the buyer the deal...
Just don't take for granted that all ebay buyers are as slick or knowing about the phones as we are! My guess is half the bidders will even ask you to explain what a custom rom is! LOL Some might even think they will get free calls iof they buy it! LOL
