Let's say you're selling a $500 sports card.
The buyer receives it, and claims it's a fake.
How is ebay supposed to know who to believe? Without any authentication, chances are they will side with the buyer.
Now you're out the money AND the card.
Yes, I prefer the authentication service to that scenario, eight days a week.
