If the eBay seller is an authorized dealer, you can call Lenovo and they'll probably adjust the warranty to the date of the receipt/invoice. If not, you're probably stuck with whatever the warranty is now.

See this thread --> viewtopic.php?t=36772

As noted, you'll need a receipt from an authorized dealer/partner to reset the warranty start date.
