Authenticators are not guarantors nor insurers. They give opinions. I think JSA should refund the original authentication fee, but they should never be on the hook for a purchase price of any item, otherwise we could cook up some new scams at their expense.
I still think the original auction house should be called on to make a judgment. "Please resell this item I purchased through your house previously. If JSA is who you trust to authenticate, then ask them why they changed their minds and then tell me whether you think you profited from an inauthentic item."

I agree that the original auction house is the person to talk to, but PSA has backed up their initial opinion at least a few times for me when they discovered the had made a mistake with an auction letter. Most of the time they would give me credit on my new order for the amount I was out. I have not heard of JSA doing this though.
