Joe D."The idea that the grade of the card you submit can not be lower makes absolutely no sense at all."
Thats how a cross works. You can tell them a minimum grade you will accept (up to the grade it is in) or 'do not crack'.
Why not the same on a reevaluation?
Do not crack if you feel it is lower.
Its not gambling... its asking for another opinion.
I feel if PSA or any other grader wants to lower the grade in one of my cards... they need to buy it from me first. Chances are I spent the '5' money to get the '5' based on the opinion that it was a '5'.
BTW - I am not sure of their policy... but I believe if you send the card in for reevaluation, you pay a fee whether or not it gets reslabbed. If so, it wouldn't be pay-per-bump.
