So what bothers me is that the service is mandatory. I just bought a card from house of cards, md on eBay. It shipped to the Authenticator, whoever it may be. I don’t need eBay to tell me it’s genuine, I can tell for myself. Besides, the seller is Huggins and Scott’s eBay site, and I doubt they would risk their reputation over an $800 card. But I’m not “allowed” to opt out. When I’m told I don’t have a choice in the matter, I remind the company I always have the choice of doing business elsewhere. So no one needs worry anymore about me sniping you on eBay again. My 2 cents.

you'll get the card & it will be fine. it may take 2 days longer. You are NOT paying for the service, so why get worked up. Seems EXTREME !

It’s okay to be obtuse. You just be you.

Sometimes you may NOT get the card. If PSA rejects it for the label being incorrect or the description being factually correct but not matching the label, the buyer does not get their card at all. This is one of the many concerns; especially for those of us who collect oddball items the authenticators don’t know what to do with. I the buyer am aware that many items I buy are not listed correctly, because they are rare and little known. I still want them, don’t need a grader rejecting because they don’t know if it’s real or kicking it back if they do recognize it because it wasn’t described right. I don’t need some third party to tell me what deals I am and am not allowed to make.

back to sort of on topic. I just won a 400 dollar raw card and it recently came back from ebay authentication., They are definitely going to charge for that service and the fancy wrapping., The only question is, how much? .,

I just received an eBay authenticity guarantee card. For what its worth the card came packaged well and is presented in a hardboard display case. It is nice. The psa graded card is encased in a sleeve with a sticker that voids the guarantee if broken.

I am sure this has been answered in other posts.
If seller offers no returns I assume if a card comes back not authentic the buyer gets their money back. How does that happen? Does eBay hold money in escrow assuming you pay via PayPal?

If all you had to do is increase your internal costs and then pass them through as fees, Scott would be paying you a 7-figure consulting fee to get us all to consign our cards over to The Collector Connection. And Scott could then take a 50% markup on all his sales. It's not that easy. Last edited by Gorditadogg; 02-11-2023 at 07:50 PM. |

I won a 1980 Rickey H RC in 8.5 from 4SC on eBay. They sent it in for their lame authentication. It was REJECTED as authentic. I was refunded by eBay.
I contacted my people at 4SC and they said this is a 1st for them. They have never had a rejection until now. I could care less. When the card gets returned to 4SC I will buy it again. The cert # was recent, so not worried. |
