1st Edition Fossil Pack Side Nicks

I recently purchase 2 1st edition fossil packs for a decent price and they arrived in the mail a few days ago. Both packs had the same small nicks along the right side. I’m not sure what caused these and was wondering if it’s normally for these packs to have them? I would assume the seller pulled the packs from a box and they came out with this damage on it but I’m not sure. It wasn’t packaged the greatest but I don’t think these little nicks would’ve been caused in shipping.

Thoughts anyone?


Normal I open a lot of boxes and see it a lot. I think they were done by WOTC so the packs didn’t explode when being shipped due to high altitude, basically like poking holes in the top of microwaveable food. At least that’s what I’ve heard and read

This is what i have seen when opening fossil packs. Reason for it, unsure, but legit unless you find other issues.

Completely normal. Lots of my wotc packs have those as well.

Thanks a lot everyone! I wasn’t worried about authenticity or anything, just trying to learn more about WOTC packs and such since these are my first sealed purchases.

Thanks again!
