Will PSA count off for this? Finest Pujols Auto - I NOW HAVE AN ANSWER!!!!!!

I just bought this off of Ebay. The signature is faded, but the card appears to be in great shape. If I send this in, will PSA count off any for the faded auto? Since the autograph is not in question, will they grade just the structure of the card? I bought it for the simple fact that the card will be just fine for my collection, and I already have a PSA 9 which I will be able to sell for much more than what I gave for the faded one.

Opinions needed. 2001 Finest Pujols Auto

    I don't know if they will count off or not, but it sure is ugly and will hurt the price if you sell....

    I agree it's an ugly auto. But, if it got a 9 or 10 due to the condition of just the card, then it might bring more than it would raw.

    frankhardy,

    What is your opinion? Would you pay more for that specific card in a PSA 9 holder?

    For me, the eye appeal would not be very high no matter what the grade is. It does bring up an interesting point though, what if it were slabbed as a 9 and then the autograph faded?

    Exactly.

    My main question, though, is how does PSA treat such a thing?
