Maybe you filled it up too fast or the shop filled it up too fast. as a result you get a warm tank, So after it cools off, your psi drops.

yah, that happend with my 88/4500

the USPS dropped it and the gauge was leaking, it took the pro shop 3 days to find the leak, they submerged it in water to find out where it was
