If they were really ambitious I suppose they could start an investigation and put a monitor on the seller. Should enough complaints for items match up to a particular seller's account, especially if they are exclusively offering brand new, unopened items, they could create a pattern and cause for action. That relies as much on the public to report theft in detail as it does for law enforcement to commit to the investigation.

Realistically they probably won't do that because it's petty theft and much easier to continuously say "there's nothing we can do". I know they have larger fish to fry, but it's always frustrating as a victim to watch them shrug their shoulders.
