This is the situation that no one who releases a system based on this method(I can think of a few over the past year) thinks of. They assume the buyer will always act on social instead of financial best interest in the event of a scam.

I wonder if it is theoretically impossible to create a protocol that punishes cheating when the cheating occurs outside the system (when the physical goods change hands). And even if it isn't you would also somehow have to consider the fact that things get lost or damaged in the mail and assign blame to one party on the protocol level.
