I am strongly considering throwing away all of my JSA and PSA certificates - it would be hypocritical to keep them and none of my buyers have ever requested them.
ALWAYS keep the bill of sale, As a long time buyer of vintage autographs I never ask to see a "letter of opinion". But will often ask to see a bill of sale. Not to see what the item sold for but to track provenance. Even in cases where the seller is long ago deceased. A bill of sale from a reputable dealer is a solid resource.
