Interesting. Maybe if this continues to happen, more sellers will be encouraged to invest in sleeves for slabs. Always bugs the hell out of me when I get one in the mail that's not in at least some sort of sleeve...
I've never heard of this happening with a graded card, though I generally shy away from selling something raw that is expensive enough to warrant authentication on eBay, because I'd be scared to actually include my thoughts on condition, lest the "authenticator" who has been on the job for less than two weeks doesn't know the difference between EX and EX-MT on vintage cardboard. I've always thought that this part of it is a huge disservice to collectors - we are teaching those new to the hobby that you are better off to rely on the TPG's over and above trying to learn anything about how to actually grade cards yourself. Oy.
