Trying to lay down the "law" overlooks that consumer protection legislation doesn't apply to private sellers, or to overseas sellers. As regards returns, "No returns accepted" is eBay's default policy for sellers.

What's important for both buyers and sellers is to read eBay's user agreement, which governs all transactions here, especially eBay's money back guarantee policy, see: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/money-back-guarantee.html
