Quick question about submitting to PSA/DNA

I have not submitted anything to PSA/DNA in years. I was thinking that I remember submitting signed cards to be authenticated and it was only $20, REGARDLESS of the authentication fee for a certain player. In other words, if a signed baseball of a certain player was $50 or $75, a card would still be $20. Is that still accurate? I could not find anything about that on the PSA site. The only thing I found was each player's authentication fee.

Edited to say - I am talking about slabbing the card either with a blue flip or a red flip.

    I think I just found my answer. Could someone confirm this?

    The regular PSA form has an autograph authentication section for slabbing cards. The price must have went up to $25.

    So, am I right in saying that a card that has a declared value under $500 can be slabbed and authenticated for $25? But any other item must use each players authentication fee? Also, does the PSA form get the blue flip or the red flip?

    And the PSA form gets the red flip and you can decide if you want it graded for card grade or just authentic.

    I didn't know there was a table of fees per player. Can somebody link that please? I have at least a half dozen I want to sub soon and some of them are bigger stars than others.

    So, if you want the blue flip (which doesn't matter to me), you would need to submit to PSA/DNA and pay the fee for each player?

    It's starting to come back to me now. There is not a fee per player if you go the route of the PSA (not PSA/DNA) submission form and it is a trading card. If it is a baseball, photo, etc, then you have to go the route of PSA/DNA, which has a fee associated with each player.

    An example that I just remembered is Mickey Mantle. To have a Mickey Mantle baseball authenticated, you have to pay $100. However, I remember a few years ago having a 1964 Topps Giants Mickey Mantle that had a gorgeous autograph on it. I paid $20 to have it slabbed and authenticated.

    Here is link. Linky

    I looked in my archives and found the Mantle mentioned above. I wish I had that one back.
