@bobbyd6262 If your card that is for sale qualifies for the program then you will be provided the address after the buyer pays. You select print shipping label from the drop down menu next to the sold card. You must ALWAYS ship to the address that is on the order details page.

Raw and graded trading cards are eligible for Authenticity Guarantee if they meet the following criteria:

Cards must be one of the following:
- Collectible Card Game Single Cards
- Sports Trading Card Singles
- Non-Sports Trading Card Singles
Graded cards must be from the following graders only:
- Beckett
- PSA
- Certified Collectibles Group
- SGC
Cards must have a Buy It Now price of $250 or more, or sell in an auction for $250 or more
- If the Buy It Now price is $250 or more but you sell for a best offer or auction price of less than $250, the cards will still be eligible for authentication â€‹
Cards with autographs placed on them by the manufacturer, via sticker or pre-signing, can be authenticated
Cards with relics, patches, aftermarket signatures or autographs that were placed on the card in person can be authenticated, but the authenticity of the embedded relic, autograph, patch, etc., cannot be guaranteed
Cards must be sold on ebay.com by a seller located in the continental US to a buyer located in the continental US

The following trading cards are not currently eligible for authentication

Graded cards that are NOT from one of our approved graders. Examples of unapproved graders include:
- GMA
- HGA
- KSA
- WCG
- GBA
Listings where the delivery is local pickup, in-store pickup, or being shipped to a PO box

Some purchases inspected under Authenticity Guarantee are considered final sale. Please read eBay Money Back Guarantee policy for details.
