I suspect that there will soon be a (or maybe several) online 
databases (like equifax for credit reference) retailers can register 
cutomers who exercise their legal rights to return goods.  Once 
someone gets on this register then distance sellers will be unwilling 
to sell to these folks.

Distance selling is going to make e-tailing more risky, and therefore 
more expensive.  

Even Amazon got caught:
