But I had assumed that Greg Morris' outstanding reputation may have allowed them to get a pass for a while. Either way, I don't think there is any way around the authenticity guarantee any more (which I am ok with). But please someone prove me wrong.

I can vouch that it was, but have not thought to keep documentary evidence and dated screen caps to prove it. A hobby pal was using the 'set break' trick to not have to do the authenticity guarantee on a few cards he sold, and it definitely worked then, a couple months ago.

My understanding was that Greg Morris and 1 or 2 other big movers had a separate deal with eBay to not do it for awhile; and that Morris uses 'set break' in all his listings is not related and long pre-dated this issue.

Presumably eBay has just improved their logic to break this workaround trick, as usually happens when users find a way around an undesired new 'feature'.
