Are slabs with old PSA labels valued less?

All of my PSA 9's and 10's are vintage cards of mostly 1970's baseball (some football) of various star players and were graded around 20 years ago with the older-style holders which don't have new logo at the top (PSA "lighthouse logo" I think it's called). While the new holders look more modern is it worth the trouble (time and cost) switching all of them to the newer holders. Personally I lean towards no. A PSA 10 is a PSA 10 (at least I assume that's still the case) and if it ain't broke don't fix it. -thanks

    Of course buyers will try to get them discounted, as a seller at some point it may be a fact. But if your card is accurately or undergraded like so many PSA cards, you will get your price.

    Used Best Offer and purchased this one for $363.00........with E-Bays authentication of Psa cards
    selling over $250.00 .......card gets a stamp of approval without that new label ! I will leave it in the
    Psa sleeve as further proof ! I don't care what Psa label the card resides in , as long as it has great eye appeal
    and centered with nice corners at a reasonable price , I will bid on it !

    Rule of thumb buy the card not the case. I would never buy a card I thought was over graded despite the case.
    However, I believe grading has been stricter and I am a tad wary about older cases. At this point I am buying mostly newer PSA cases with the lighthouse logo.
    The brand-new PSA cases are awesome. Great upgrade.
