WHy cant there be a blanket policy? If paypal finds in favour of the buyer then why shouldnt the seller have to pay return postage given that paypal themselves found the seller at fault then say the buyer MUST pay for return postage. Bit unfair on the buyer. The policy could also include a clause whereby the seller might not have to pay return postage for a damage item if buyer can then prove destruction/disposal of damage/broken item (if desired by the seller, why would a seller want a damaged/broken item back anyway). Misdescribed items should be return postage paid by seller. Just ideas to protect both the buyer AND the seller.

If you purchase from overseas sellers the return costs are always going to be higher, without the consumer protection avenues that you would have if you purchased within Australia.
However, depending on the value of the goods and if they are purchased via the ebay.com.au site, and if the return costs are high compared to the items actual cost you can include in your claim (or appeal) not to have to return the goods on that basis - it may not be successful, however IMO always worth a shot.
