  1. No, they are certifying comics and getting paid to do so. Maybe a better option is to choose an acronym that better suits their behavior and business decisions.
  2. This is a pretty sad day for true collectors and aficionados in this medium. The resulting fallout (no pun intended) and the creation of the always unforeseen unintended consequences might have some lasting and very painful ramifications---collectors, distributors, sellers, creators etc. Such a stupid hill to die on.
  3. I don't think you name names yet. A formal police report and case number is imperative for your position. Escalation or not, ensure that eBay knows you will provide them with one. Please be sure to document the name of the eBay rep you are talking to as well as the details of your conversation and time stamp it via personal email to yourself with the above. This is just another layer of protection, but it has its worth in weight as well.
  4. Contacting eBay and keeping a clear log of event timelines is great, but I also think you should be filing a formal police report. What this seller did is against the law and he or she committed a federal offense for mail fraud. A formal police report does have weight in this circumstance and has actually either made eBay step up to the plate and cover the loss or even have the offending character state that they made a mistake. I would highly suggest this too for @Kevin76
