1980 Topps Wax Box - Look Legit?

I know this isn't much to go on, but I was hoping someone with some experience might be able to give me a "QuickOpinion" type answer. If these packs look solid or not. I was told the box among other items were in storage for years. I have no reason to doubt the guy, but I have zero knowledge in packs being resealed etc...

Thanks
Craig

    The box is rough but the seals look good, imo. But you won't know for sure until you hold the packs in hand. 1980 Topps baseball packs were also notorious for miswraps so even good packs may have imperfect seals on back. A note of caution: A lot of raw wax on ebay is no good, so it pays to be careful.

    grote15 - I appreciate you taking the time to respond and the info as well. It's from a member of a trade site I belong to. He is selling it for an elderly neighbor who has had them in storage with some other items for years. This is the oldest unopened item. Everything else seems to be 86 and newer in regards to unopened material.

    Thanks again!

    You're welcome. My personal opinion from the scan is that the box looks clean. Good luck on the purchase if you decide to buy the box!~
