Help needed on graded card

[Tanana]

Hey guys,

I purchased the below from eBay, and finally got the card in hand. It looks like it's stained or is it just a little faded? I have the full set not graded but none are like this and can't tell if it's normal or not

Is this normal or is the card itself a little damaged? It's the sticker version from the 1986 Fleer Set graded PSA 10

I have 2 of the Jordan stickers from the same set and one of them has slight fading on the same black line. I'd say it's a standard printing variation. I wouldn't worry about it, looks normal to me.

Even if the grade is PSA10?

could it have faded since the grading?

I dont know if standard print variations affect grading or not. The centering looks nice, colours look good, corners good etc - so if they ignore the patchy black lines i guess it could get a 10. I dont know if the print issue could count under the "surface" category or not.
Having said that, my faded jordan one is only graded at a 7 (not BGS so i cant see the categories).

Ok thanks for the info, I just emailed the rep I've been dealing with at PSA for other orders and cards, will see what they say,

could it have faded since the grading?

That's what I'm thinking happened unless PSA say it's normal

Update to this, I got reply from PSA and looks like it's fine with them, not something that would drop the grade

I'll be sticking to the main set for now
