Has anyone ever saw a fake 1st ed Gym Heroes Booster Pack?
I have purchased 32 boosters with box and gonna get them next week hopefully… However I find the box odd. The cut of the flap that says “Pokemon” is different than other 1st ed Boxes. I only realized that today unfortunately. The boxes looks sun faded, but everything else looked fine at first glance. Now everything is a big question in my mind.
It’s not correct, even the packs have the long crimp which is not typical, but I have seen packs such as jungle and neo discovery have the long crimp and they have been made in belgium, but this box does not appear to be made in belgium
Check the packs when you get them and see if they say ‘made in belgium’,
seller also sold an odd gym challenge box, with the same odd cut around the pokemon logo and same long crimps, both boxes look like cheap fakes as well
Opening a pack would tell you with 100% certainty, but may be harder to force a return if you open some packs, would be best to just do a straight return
edit; jungle packs with the long crimps sold by same seller with made in USA on the back, not a good sign!
Not 100% sure how to go about it, but you probably don’t want to say they’re counterfeit, you’ll likely be asked to get a 3rd party opinion and provide that to ebay
Thanks @acebren, I will return as “item doesn’t match description” and say the packs are don’t fell right, would that work? Or don’t say anything and just start return. Go with Paypal return?
Man, this is a lot of money all at once, I am a bit nervous
Message the seller first and request a return. If you are “REALLY” nervous you can offer to pay the return shipping. I think eBay will side with you though if it escalates. Sounds fishy as hell.
