Wax Pack grading question

I recently picked up a wax pack that I'm considering submitting to be graded. There is an old Woolworth price sticker on the pack. From your experience, how would PSA grade such a pack? Are there qualifiers on wax packs like there are on cards? Thanks in advance for the feedback.

    I believe they mark the pack down for any stickers on it. I think that a PSA 5 is the highest they give in that situation, but maybe someone who has more experience with subbing packs with stickers on them can chime in.

    Mike is correct. I would say a PSA 5 or 6 would be the likely grade. If the sticker is loose enough though you might want to try removing it and using some goo gone to remove the sticker residue left behind.
