I disagree with you regarding snad returns. I feel that all returns should be paid for by the buyer. They’ve got to have some skin in the game too. Regarding the 2nd paragraph, eBay needs to vet their sellers....you really think a long time seller with fabulous feedback and who relies somewhat on eBay to make a living is going to lie?
That's ok, we can agree to disagree. Buyers already have skin in the game, they handed over their money and then didn't get what they were promised and I just don't see how making them pay for the return is fair. There are listings that, by accident or design, are legitimate SNADs. You make it sound as if the buyer should be punished because they dare to dispute a legitimate SNAD, when just getting the SNAD is often very contentious for the buyer anyway.
If you got something that was not as described in the listing, would you be willing to throw more money at a situation not of your choosing or fault to correct it? I think not. Paying for the return shipping is an incentive to provide an accurate listing.
Sellers could use that in addition to intimidation and abuse to try to get the buyer to abandon the return. So it would all be to the seller 's advantage. I doubt buyers will continue to buy if they have to pay to return the many legitimate SNADs that are occurring.
