eBay Authenticity Guarantee not showing up after i sold an item over $1000.00

[33nhl]

Recently sold an item well over $1000.00 on eBay Cnaada site. Weird but i tought this listing i recently sold had the blue icon Ebay Authentication maybe i missed to notice that it did not when i listed it.

I thought all items listed and sold over $250.00 have to go through the Authentication process unless it was changed and not all items get that Authentication blue dot icon???

I didnt get an email notifying me that i have to send into eBay Authentication, so thats kind of odd.

Now do i call eBay and ask them why it dont need to go through or do i just send to buyer,

Since it is an item well over $1000.00 i would not mind if it gone through eBay Authentication that way i have my butt covered lol being the card is as described.

Both of us Seller and Buyer are in Canada and as far as i know both parties have to be in same country for the eBay Authentication to be required on items $250.00 or more, now unless this buyer purchased it from Ebay.com and im on eBay Canada makes any difference of Authentication not needed??

Any one else had similar issue??

I'm looking at your listing for the Byfield card and it also isn't covered by the Authentication Program.  I'm thinking that it's because of how you have the item categorized.  "Collectibles and Art" isn't a category that appears to be recognized by the Authentication Program.  Check out the FAQ:

If this is about the listing for the Dylan Guenther card, I see that it's appropriately categorized for Authentication purposes.  Do you have any idea if the buyer used a PO Box for their shipping address?  That would put the kibosh on the use of the Authentication process.

I'd suggest contacting eBay through social media and asking.
