If I was interested in this card, I'd message the seller with the offer to pay for them to send it to PSA for a reholder to the new flip/holder. If PSA completes the reholder, pay them in full for $5,000.
If they balk at sending it back to PSA, the holder has been compromised and the card's not real.
I agree the cost would go up but timelines shouldn’t be impacted. Graders need to be trained versus anyone can essentially scan in cards. It’s nice you can scan in your own cards but I’m guessing scammers wouldn’t do that.

But good points and probably answers my questions.
