new low for the ebay authenticity thing

[Kidnapped18]

I just received a card I bought off the Bay that went through the authentication program and received a package/box similar to Greg (G1911). I am impressed at the packaging and display box! (Went to mail box and wondered why I had such a big box for only one card.) My confusion is that it looks like PWCC was the expert grader as it contained there A Top 30% card with my package!!! PWCC was booted by eBay a while ago so are they now using them to authenticate? Seller didn't indicated in description that it was PWCC A Top 30%
Maybe I'm missing something...

I would expect the card was probably previously sold by PWCC and they stuck the sticker on it then, in the past for that old sale. Probably just that nobody has taken it off the slab.

Ok that makes sense Greg and I see the sticker on the slab and viewed the pics from eBay that show the sticker already on as well however this came with a PWCC Marketplace card outside of the display box. Maybe the previous owner mailed it with the card similar to you receiving the note from your seller.

On the alternate side of this story I just received a Jumbo SGC card (R311 Leather Finish) from PSA/Ebay authentication of the slab and it came back in a super thin large bubble mailer only.
No cardboard or protection other than the thin bubble mailer.

No damage to the holder miraculously but still not a smart way to ship. I know PSA doesn't mail their own Jumbo holders that way from grading.
