Ebay Authentication is a Comical JOKE.

Look, to everyone who says they don't care about scratches on their slabs, you are full of beans (and sh!t).

If you like slabs on your cards, you don't like scratches on your slabs. Go make a poll asking collectors here what they think and we'll expose what absolute nonsense that is.

My dude, 20 cents worth of solution and a few minutes can get your plastic holder "pack fresh."

It's an extremely minor deal to a lot of people. Many don't even bother with getting the scratches out.

The card up top as a not-totally-specific example...it's oversized and an old slab. I suggest you never bid or buy one of these. There's a high chance of disappointment.

I know all about slabs and YOU know that no solution will take out deep scratching.

I am disappointed in every single slab and I destroy every single one that has a card I want inside.

1) Anyone who buys a Demaree Die Cut has about a 99.5 percent chance of knowing about how difficult the card is and does not care about a scratch on the holder. He or she just wants the card.

2) The EBay authenticator has some "guidelines" they must follow and attempt to treat everyone the same.

Both of these can be accurate at the same time and yes it can cause some frustrations along the way but I think I'd rather always err on the side of protecting both the seller and the buyer and understand no system is 100 percent accurate.

If it is a rare card, I (and I am sure many others who have been on here forever) do NOT care because I can always send it in to get reslabbed for a small fee....

I am sure a poll would show the same but I would not GUARANTEE it

But those of us who care about cards and only cards care not about slabs. We just roll our eyes at label collectors.
