1. Brembo does not make, nor warranty, any cross-drilled and slotted rotors. They offer one or the other. While it is common for people to drill their own rotors (I know of at least one professional racer who does this), I have heard of people who buy these experience rusting of the non-friction surfaces. Functionality is fine, so the price is a good deal, imo. It could just be that someone has bought standard Brembo blanks (widely available) and machined them. They should be fine, but I make no warranty to you on service life or safety. As with anything critical to the safe operation of a car purchased on eBay - use at your own risk.

2. If you quote yourself, there, you can see how I modified your link to make it appear differently. Should you take that tag to heart, you will have a leg up on others who are not so net savvy and ensure that your future posts are clean and appealing to the eye. (Plus, you won't have to worry about having to scroll way off to the right to read the whole damn thing.)

Ditto. My raceconcepts GSX rotors were the same way.
