Ebay Authentication is a Comical JOKE.

So it does happen this way, although it sounds like it doesn't happen every time.

I have also been a buyer when the card failed due to condition, ebay reached out with detailed photos, and gave me the option to proceed with the purchase or pass.

So they definitely do that sometimes. I wonder why they don't do it all the time.
