People have been predicting that since the authentication service started almost 2 years ago, and apparently it's been in place even longer for sneakers without being charged to the buyer or seller. It seems like eBay must be saving enough in having to deal with fraudulent sales that they are willing to cover the cost for this long so it's unlikely that will change soon.
