Bought this on a lark and since it was cheap and came with some other stuff.

My question is IS it sealed, why or why not?

    Check for "roller marks". Little wax lines that should line up on both sides of the pack.

    My expertise in packs is opening them. I'm not sure about the sealed part.

    But I think you should rip it!!

    It is confirmed that George Gervin is the top card

    if you look close at the back card, you can see career stats for PPG. Stickers don't have career stats and stickers came on the backs of packs.

    I'd say that's not a good sign

    Yeah it's sealed. Not sure who it was sealed by but definitely sealed.

    Open it, if it doesn't have a Jordan, then send it back and tell them it must've been resealed

    Searched and resealed. Corner folds are all out of whack. Stain on back is typical of either an iron mark burning wax or oil from the fingers or hand that attached to the glue and stained the residue.

    Yep... 100% agree. Doesn't look good....

    The corner folds are consistent with a reseal and by a baaaaad resealer at that. Only one chance in a billion that the pack is legit
    IT IS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO NOT SELL ON EBAY

    12 Gervins and a 1988 fleer sticker is my bet

    My take?

    Looks really - not good.

    I didnt think the pack was good, but why would someone do such a bad job...try and thow us off the case? Seller granted refund and I bought 2 T205's and 2 Auto'd 52 topps...I feel much better image
