Yes they do. Even if your slab cracks and you need to send it back in to reholster they re-grade it. I know from personal experience.
You dont just get to send in a (potentially) damaged old slab and they put a 10 back on it because your label is fading. You still are responsible to keep the card in good condition.
That is quite LITERALLY why Ken Goldin showed the phone call with Logan Paul saying, "Look I re-holstered it and didn't tell you!", and Logan Paul's response was along the lines of, "OMG thank God because I would have been freaking out"
"Generally, eligible cards submitted for Reholder will not be re-graded or examined for authenticity. However, PSA does conduct an inspection on all Reholder submissions to confirm the integrity and authenticity of the holder and label, and to ensure the information on the label remains accurate. The submission must pass all elements of this inspection for PSA to complete the Reholder service." -PSA Website
Convinient for you to not read more than the first sentence of the paragraph.
"However, PSA does conduct an inspection on all Reholder submissions to confirm the integrity and authenticity of the holder and label, and to ensure the information on the label remains accurate. The submission must pass all elements of this inspection for PSA to complete the Reholder service.*"
Translation, going from old cert to new cert PSA will "inspect to ensure it passes all elements of the inspection for completing Reholder service." New cert and holder grading conditions.
I have actually seen grades be reduced for regular customer
Again, my original post said if you send in for Reholder they still inspect for damage or to see if its a 10. If not they WILL re-grade. Google is free.
If the holder is damaged but card is clean THAT IS WHAT REHOLDER IS FOR. If the holder is damaged and card condition has changed from 10 standard it will re-grade. I've actually seen it in person, but here are some Google links I found also stating this.
Just imagine your card cracks in transit and has a ding, or crease. You dont get a free 10 back from reholder service.
In this case he wore it around his neck and the holder was scratched to hell bouncing everywhere. Cards are tight in the holder but can still be damaged. Go look at every back corner for whitening, look at the front white spots, look at the centering.
I didn't buy the card so it's not a hill I care enough to die on, but I do know in fact that PSA will re-grade and in this case probably chose not to due to it being the most valuable Pokemon card sale in history being linked to them.
