At what dollar amount is the Jewelry Authentication Guarantee automatically added to the listing?
Over $100, Over $500, over $1,000 etc?
And if an item is marked down below the threshold is the Authentication Guarantee removed?
Before posting this question I have searched Ebay for the rules but with no success in finding them.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Should be. The info posted above says "sold for," $500 or more, not originally listed for.

Above info is correct. Sold for price; $500.00 goes to GIA, $499.99 does not.
