Are these signs of a resealed booster pack? Need help!

Hello everyone, I’ve recently found some booster packs and I realised that there are these signs of wear across the entire breadth of the booster pack. For those who have experienced scams or have knowledge in this area, could you kindly let me know if these are resealed packs? And if so, are they still worth anything? Thank you so much!

Smells fishy to me…

That team Magma/Aqua is forsure resealed! Other one looks that way too!

Wow that’s pretty bad.

If it’s wear I guess it wouldn’t be completely across the end of the pack?

Horrible job at resealing. Jeesh.

Stay away

Pass…
Don’t buy packs unless it’s from highly rated, reputable sources who guarantee them.

Can you send a link where you got them? We helped you, now you can help the community.

I bought a pack from the auction below. Made a post about it awhile back, but my neo genesis pack looked like this and there were 12 cards, out of order in the pack. They refused to admit resealing and doubled down when I contacted them about it.

Ugh, I almost bought from them! Thanks for the heads up! It smelled fishy and it’s odd they have only 2 artworks for sale and lots of them. The hell happened to the other artworks? lol

Thanks for all the input guys! My grandma found them in her basement (no idea where they come from). She thought they were kept from when I was young but I guess that’s not the case since they’ve quite clearly been tampered with.

Resealing such packs is extremely uncommon, if they’ve been in your grandmas possession for a while I’d say its just general wear and tear from not being stored correctly

Yep… The only reason I bought from them is because they had sold so many with good feedback. Maybe no one opened them? I wound up opening my pack because it was in such bad condition I figured it wasn’t much of a loss.

When I contacted them, they said that the packs came straight from the box with "security"markers still on them?? LOL I didn’t know box fresh packs had security markers on them. Good point about only having the two artworks too…

Just open a case saying that it isn’t authentic, and they’ll be forced to take a return and you’ll get a full refund. – Even with the packs opened.
