Are you comparing a two party transaction where buyer and seller is face to face to that of one with a 3rd party who does not see the item coming and going.

 

And look how many times he got away with it there.

I assume  you're saying[ with a hint of sarcasm ]  because of   e bay's new free return policy  this type of thing could start happening a lot  more to sellers  here as well  ?  If so ,, probably  . Sellers could not only be getting back damaged junk   but now they must pay to get back the damaged junk.  Then its their word against the buyers ,, meaning there is really no such thing as seller protection . tulips
