Surely if someone says "I sent (item)" the only way they can prove it is if they sent it using a signed for service or have a receipt for sending.
Also, if someone sells you a fake, then you have the fake to hand to prove it is a fake. Pretty easy really.
The only reason eBay won't bother is because it is too much effort for them and it would lose them money. They will also lose money from listings and final valuation fees if they get rid of scammers. eBay has across their site, "protection this", "protection that", $$$$, ££££ protection if anything goes wrong, but when something does go wrong they don't care and you can't get in touch with them.
