It would appear that PSA is having a hard enough time making money these days. Increasing their costs OR passing on higher grading fees to customers is not the sort of thing that is going to help them.
One thing I learned when I got into the graded card game is that I actually had to really educate myself about the grading of cards. The more I handled graded cards the more familiar I became with how grading is done. That is not to say that there isn't head scratchers here and there, but that sort of thing is expected when you add the human factor into grading.
