PSA and CSG are both involved in authenticating cards. All raw cards over $600 get authenticated and all graded cards over $750 get authenticated as well.... You are "required" to send all cards valued over $750 with a "signature guarantee" or you will not get your money back if a card is lost in mail when going to authenticator. Was not aware of this and is cost me a $1600 Colgan's Chip Honus Wagner. The item was sent with 'tracking' but no signature.

It's currently all raw cards $250+ and graded cards $750+
Unless the seller puts certain words in the title to avoid the authentication process. Quote:

The raw card authentication is actually lower.
From their website: “eBay covers the cost of authentication. Single ungraded cards $250+ and single graded cards $750+ are eligible for the service at this time.” B.T.

What's funny about my sale, I had the card listed for $275, it sold for $240 on a make offer. The sale was for less than the $250, so I'm guessing they use the list price and not the actual sale price. With taxes and shipping it came out to around 255 or so - crazy.

I received notification from Ebay this morning that my card passed the authentication process and has been forwarded to the buyer.
Now I hope it is repackaged carefully and quickly sent to the buyer. That was my goal when I sold it. I'll post when it's received by the buyer. |

My card just showed up at the authenticator hub today. Any idea as to how long yours was at the hub?
Thanks, Butch…

I bought a couple of 1916 Ferguson Bakery Pennants last month that were sent off to be "authenticated".
Made the process longer and they did nothing to them, kept them in what the seller had them in best I could tell. One seller asked me afterwards to see a picture of what the authenticator did to the card..."how they framed it"... and they did nothing to it, kept it in what the seller shipped it to them in. |

Hey Butch, I mailed the card on May 31. I'm in CA and it was mailed to FL. I didn't track when it was received, but it was authenticated yesterday, Jun 2. I was surprised how quick it actually was. I checked tracking just now and it has an anticipated delivery date of Jun 6.
I have been in contact with the buyer each step of the way and so far he is ok with the process. I won't be satisfied until the buyer has it in hand and leaves feedback. I'm like that with every sale. I'll post when it's received. Please let me know if your card gets authenticated. I still am very skeptical when it comes to vintage card authentication by a 3rd party. |

The 3 cards I bought that went through authentication all were at the hub for just a day before I was notified that they were authenticated without issue. They were then shipped the next day.
