I'm not sure what the grading card companies processes are. Bottom line is that we all have thousands of cards slabbed or un-slabbed in some type of storage boxs/cases. I would suggest buy and start using "Desiccant packs" or "Silica gel re-usuable packs" to help remove the moisture from the case.

Apparently they are not vacuum sealed. So theoretically, changes in temperature could cause condensation and sealed enough to not allow evaporation. Hence the water molecule would create mold. Wow! Something new to consider with slabbed cards. Perhaps the practice of slabbing cards needs to include vacuum sealing.
