So the issue isn't is it possible for an 8 to be regraded a 10, which I imagine in rare cases could happen, but why did that particular card receive a 10? That's the issue we've been debating.
Weak 10's are possible for PSA because PSA does not have the Pristine grade that SGC and Beckett have. Therefore, weak 10's are Gem Mint, and strong 10's are Pristine.

For the Art Shell card in question, that's obviously a misgrade and does not deserve a 10.
