After seeing a couple of Wagners and a few other commons graded, I assumed they knew enough about them to be able to grade and slab them. They did not appear that they were even taken out of the holders that I sent and had sandwiched them in and taped together to allow easy removal. They also stated in their response that they are not officially classifying them as "fake" but that they still have not seen enough examples to accurately authenticate. Meanwhile, I am out over $600 for the submissions and an explanation that they do not issue refunds. Had I known their lack of knowledge of these items, I would have only sent one or two for submission, so I would have only shelled out $100 or so.

Agreed, that's a lame excuse for them to take the full $600 and not even look at the full group. You should get at least a partial, if not full, refund. Continue calling them until you get a better result, because like you said, they have authenticated some so why not yours, unless yours truly are questionable but then I'd want a reason why?
