Yup... I really don't understand how you see PSA or JSA holograms on $20 items. Even if the cert was obtained at a show and only cost $8 at the point of signing, the photo itself usually cost $5. That leaves $7 for the cost of the signature and what little profit is left. Add in eBay and PayPal fees and it is a loss.
