Cool. Mostly I was trying to evaluate whether you've ever gotten a bump while keeping it in the old slab.
I'm guessing that's rare, but I've only once attempted submitting without cracking first. I crossed this card from SGC 6 to PSA 5, without cracking it out. Would it have scored higher if I had cracked it out first? Hard to say, but I wasn't willing to take the chance. And with this particular issue, the grade isn't particularly important anyway.
