Message:: [QUOTE="susanlynn9, post: 18782, member: 1258"]I have now read the entire thread on eBay along with all of the responses from Andrew and I am nowhere near as hopeful as I was. Suggestions were already made to add an Authenticity specific and it appears that the suggestion was summarily dismissed with the reasoning that sellers are supposed to put that in the description anyway. Also, a condition specific is only available for NGC graded coins. I think what may have happened is that NGC contacted eBay and said that they would like to work with them in an effort to pull ahead of PCGS in the grading war (this is just my opinion). Supposedly, there are expectations of adding other grading companies specifics. Although I am not positive, I think that the pre-filled information option is linked to the Item Specifics section of eBay's program which would mean that, in order to have prefilled info for NGC, they would have to add item specifics to the category. Without having a condition and authenticity Item Specific, I do not believe that this option is going to work in favor of the sellers or the buyers. I must say that I am very disappointed that eBay would be concerned with implementing something new that does not address the existing problems on the site. To me, correction of the existing problems should be the #1 priority - not adding superfluous features.[/QUOTE]
