Some do and some don't, but it's annoying. There have supposedly been studies done to show that it cannot hurt the cards, one guy even put a PSA slab in a paint shaking machine like they have down at Home Depot. Supposedly couldn't tell any difference after shaking the hell out of a card for 10 straight minutes. I don't know...

You would think that with all of the empahsis PSA puts on other things, they could design a consistent holder where this does not happen - at least for run-of-the-mill, standard issue and size baseball cards.
