Where is it stated in the fine print of the submission form or the fee schedule that they will place a sticker which is irremovable directly on your item and it will cause damage to the item if ever removed? I went to the JSA website and downloaded a submission form and no mention of a sticker is anywhere that I saw let alone the damage it can cause or a place where you consent to it with a signature, or on their fee schedule. I did not see any other section for legalese or a reference to finer print. Did I miss it?

I am not hammering you personally since you dont own any of these companies and you were just doing your job which is totally fine. But, unless they have a spot where they inform you of the potential damage and have you sign something or click on something online in which you agree to this potential damage, they ARE open to a lawsuit. I would not call myself an expert in the law but 3 years of Law School does make you a lawyer and make your opinion of it a little higher than someone who has not such as yourself and unless I missed it in the ultra fine print or completely missed it on the submission form, you are incorrect about opening themselves up for a lawsuit. If a person does not consent to this potential damage or a reasonable person would not know of the potential damage to their item there are serious problems with the stickers and potential for harm which would absolutely be actionable under the law.

If it is on the submission form somewhere where you sign and I missed it somehow, than I apologize, but I did not see it and please do not take it as a personal attack on you as stated above.
