We just had a discussion about this on r.c.t.sewing
It seems that there are shears that cannot be sharpened, shears that
have been so abused (dropped, sharpened by idiots, etc.) that they can
no longer be sharpened, but that reasonably well cared for, reasonable
quality shears can be sharpened.
This fellow, who sharpens knives and scissors professionally, was quite
helpful in the discussion. Of course, he does sell sharpening services.

Have not gotten around to sending my shears there yet.
I don't know about sharpening other sorts of pinked cutters.

And
how would you sharpen something like that anyway?
When I got my first pair of pinking shears (just normal zig-zaggy ones) I was
told they can be professionally sharpened once, and that's it - any more and
they can't guaratee that the teeth will still meet
