I was going to mention that, but thought I that would put this topic too far into the weeds...

livingwater Pillar of the Community United States 2316 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:52 am I think this program just started recently. I clicked on the ebay link, then clicked their eligible coins link near bottom of article. They show 7,888 coins, some already graded. I don't know if employees will add coins over $500 to the program or AI will do it. I assume AI. I just bought an NGC 8 Reales Concepcion shipwreck coin for $845 two days ago on ebay. I didn't notice until now it has this authenticity guarantee. I'll follow the tracking and see if it goes to PCGS for review. They might just look at the photos and call it good.since it's already graded. I'll let you all know when it arrives. Here is what it looks like in the listing: Edited by livingwater Yesterday 12:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Freespeech57 Pillar of the Community United States 674 Posts	Posted Today 6H 35M ago I spoke with my son, who is a Baseball card collector, and he explained to me that trading card authenticity on ebay has been going on for awhile. As a seller of a card valued at $200 or more, once a purchase is made, the seller prints off a mailing label to the authenticity service, packages the card and sends it off. The authenticity service reviews the card to guarantee that it is authentic and meets the description of the seller (bent, curled edges, mint, near mint, etc.). The authenticity service then puts the card in a slip and seals with a "tamper proof" hologram label. The authenticity service then mails the card to the buyer. His understanding is that multi card, bulk card listings are not covered, but he wasn't sure. From his perspective it has made buying and selling cards on ebay a much more secure process. I can definitely see this being a positive for bullion purchases as you cane be sure that what you are buying is real (gold, silver, etc.). I guess we will see. Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 194164 Posts	Posted Today 56M ago You would think they are returned to the seller and the buyer is given a refund.
