I just came here to post about it, thanks @MsMorrisine
For those of you buy/sell cards on eBay, how has your experience been with eBay Authenticity Guarantee? In your experience, what have been the pros/cons?
This is now being rolled out on eBay coin sales as well, so I'd like to hear from people who already have some experience with the program (thanks to @DotStore for sharing their experience already).
Thanks!
I have sold some number of things that have gone through Authenticity Guarantee. From my perspective it's similar to eBay's International shipping program. I ship the item to a middle man who checks it. Then I'm safe. I don't have to worry about problems with buyers.
As a buyer, I keep hearing about people adding on PSA services before the item gets shipped from PSA to them. Like, if I want something crossed over or slabbed after authentication before PSA sends it to me. I just bought something that's going to be authenticated. I don't see any way to add on services through eBay's site.
The box they ship slabs that have been checked in is nice on the inside but not so nice on the outside. Silly gripe, I know.
I'm not sure how to do crossovers, but I have selected the service to add PSA Grading to Raw Cards going through the Authenticity process. I had to select the grading service while placing the order (see highlighted section)
