I win the attached auction from REA in May, 2023....a very nice YooHoo envelope autographed by Mantle and Berra.

I send into PSA for encapsulation and autograph grading in early July, 2023 along with a copy of the PSA/DNA letter.
A few weeks go by and PSA contacts me asking for the original PSA letter which I sent them. They cannot proceed without it.
Three months go by and dead silence. Finally after several emails and calls I am contacted by the PSA/DNA customer relations supervisor indicating that the item cannot be graded or encapsulated because the signatures are deemed to be not authentic. PSA wants to refund the fee that I paid and give me credit (against future services) for the amount I paid to REA. They also want to keep the item and the PSA original certificate.
Pretty frustrating !! What say you autograph experts ??
