Hello everyone, I’m a first time buyer here so just thought I would double check this is real. My main concern is the little lines on the side of the slab, the left side is clean but the right side of the slab looks odd ( the picture with red circle) is this normal, I’m worried it has been tampered with? The reason I’m mainly concerned about the slab is because of the odd lines on the side
It’s not uncommon to have those lines or some level of frosting. If they appear completely around the entire slab, then it is possible that the slab was tampered with but not in this case.
Also, it’s best to upload the pictures directly rather than screenshots.

Definetely looks odd, but being tampered with is another story. If the case bugs you then submitting it for reholdering can fix that issue, but I dont think its a red flag.
Hello, when you say it looks odd, do u mean it shouldn’t look like this?
Yh sorry mb they were screenshots from my camera roll
And Yh I was just concerned that it was tampered with but the other sides are completely clean.

Ok thank you
I was wondering do u have any examples of your slabs you could show me?
That is admittedly a pretty ugly weld

I was just trying to say it doesnt look normal, but just scuffed. Not worthy of a red flag from me though. It would just bother my ocd.
Any idea why it looks like this then, is it damaged? Does it affect the value of the slab?
I can assure you nobody cares about anything besides that 10 in the red and white label lol

Looks to be a manufacturing artifact or related to the ultrasonic welding process. It won’t affect the value of your slab.
