Hello,I'm trying to get a piece of jewelry I'm selling the authenticity checkmark. I read that ebay would contact me but I have not been. Any suggestions on how to join the autheticity program?Thanks

@shopofcuriositiesandmantiquities If your item meets the qualifications then it automatically has the checkmark.

What is the item number? Or what exactly is the item if it's not listed yet. You will see the checkmark after it's active if it qualifies.
