Item not coming with said paperwork
I won at item at an auction house that said it came with JSA Authentication
I got a letter in the mail and it came with a photocopy of a document that said I had to send the item to jsa to get authenticated but it would be at a discount.
JSA told me it would cost $50 and I had to ship them the item
How can they justify that as "JSA authentication"?
I'm looking to return the item and get a refund since the main reason I purchased it was because it already came with the letter. They told me they won't issue a refund.
Has anyone else experienced this? What can I do?

Most auction houses will have multiple lots pre certified by an authenticator who reviews the catalog and then offer a discount for full authentication through the authenticator per item. If it was from a major auction house I wouldn't worry about it.

Re: Item not coming with said paperwork
If the lot said it can with precertification or an auction house letter I wouldn't have bid. I only bid because it said it came with jsa authentication. I think that it is misleading. They refuse to refund though

Re: Item not coming with said paperwork
Sounds like another unsatisfied customer just be glad you where not a consignor.
I bought a PSA/DNA item a year or so ago and it came pre certified but made no mention of it. Item was for 250.00 and change. They refused to help me so I did a chargeback on my credit card. The card company MasterCard actually made the call with me on the phone to AMI and we hashed it out right there. They finally agreed to a refund and I sent the item back. They even paid for return shipping.
This company has swindling people for years. Had I known this I never would have bid.
Do a search of this forum and you will see. They have stiffed several people.
