Default Question about new Ebay Authenticity Program???
I have a Nolan Ryan rookie card graded by SGC. I was thinking of putting it on Ebay. It is mistakenly labeled by SGC as the regular version, when it is in fact the Milton Bradley version. I was thinking of listing it on Ebay as the Milton Bradley version, since that is what it truly is, instead of the mislabeled regular version. Will that throw up a red flag with their Authenticity Program?? I have heard stories about a scenario like mine being a problem.

I would hope it would cause a problem because of it being mislabeled. I have a similar problem with a Roger Clemens. I am trying to figure out the best way to fix the problem.

Best of luck. I want to get mine fixed first as it is the highest graded PSA example and now has a silly price killing qualifier.

If you add set break to the title it may avoid the whole stupid program.

If the card is already graded, supposedly the only thing PSA (eBay's graded card authenticator) is supposed to do is confirm that the case has not been tampered with.
Is it an obvious Milton Bradley? As in, does it have a white stripe on the left side of the card? Or is it less obvious, like the yellow color back and the differing cross-hatch pattern on the front?

So if the seller sends a $5 card instead of a $5000 card PSA is not going to step in?

Probably better to ask eBay if you want the correct answer or we can all bash a amazing program meant to help people from getting scammed.

PSA person 1. The auction was for a 33 Goudey Ruth, but it looks like the seller shipped a Barry Larkin rookie.
PSA person 2. That slab is definitely genuine, pack and ship.

If you’re transparent in the description ( e.g.state SGC listed as Topps but because of the white strip it’s actually a Milton Bradley), you should be fine. But if you want to avoid all this you could do what Peter Spaeth says: write “ Set Break” in the title which bypasses the Authenticity Guarantee program.

A raw card I recently bought from Greg Morris that had set-break in the listing title went through the authentication process which surprised me. I thought having set-break in the title was one way to avoid it, and I also thought I had seen a while ago that Greg Morris was somehow exempted from the authentication process. Apparently not anymore if they ever were.
