eBay is expanding its authentication services to include single graded trading cards over $2,000, the company announced<\/a> today. The company is partnering with third-party trading card authentication and grading service Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) for the expanded service.<\/p>\n

eBay\u2019s Authenticity Guarantee already includes sneakers sold for over $100<\/a>, watches sold for over $2,000, and handbags sold for over $500. In January, eBay announced<\/a> it was launching authentication services for ungraded trading cards purchased on the platform for over $750.<\/p>\n

Grading a trading card involves sending it off to a third-party service that inspects the card\u2019s condition and assigns it a rating. Graded cards often fetch more money because they\u2019ve been inspected and rated using a standardized system. <\/p>\n

PSA, the third-party authentication company that will handle the cards from eBay, will \u201cverify that the card matches the listing description and that the sealed plastic holder and label are authentic and have not been tampered with or counterfeited,\u201d according to the press release. Fake trading cards are a niche but real problem for some \u2014 Logan Paul famously bought $3.5 million worth of Pok\u00e9mon cards that turned out to be fake<\/a>. eBay\u2019s authentication service will eventually expand to include graded cards sold for over $250.<\/p>\n

Collecting and reselling trading cards experienced an enormous boost during the pandemic as many people were stuck at home. At one point, wait times to get a Pok\u00e9mon card graded stretched into months as companies like PSA dealt were inundated with cards<\/a>. Perhaps that\u2019s why eBay specified that the team at PSA handling its cards is separate from the people working through the backlog, which, according to an April 28th podcast<\/a>, stood at \u201cunder four million\u201d cards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
