All I know is that I am sitting here fuming, out $537 and no Spahny to comfort me.. A pox on the Ebay protection program.

You said before GMC said the card was not authentic. Now you re-read it and it doesn't say that? There is a big difference between authenticity and grade, those are very different things. Can you copy the letter to your post please so we all can see what it says.

I think the confusion comes from the fact that eBay calls it the 'eBay Authentication' program, and when a card fails, eBay sends you an email that says the card "failed authentication". But it can fail for multiple reasons. One of which is the card's condition simply not matching the listing, or hidden flaws that are not visible in the images and not disclosed in the listing.
