Opinion on these packs? Update!!

HI Everyone,

MY dad got me a few 1980 topps wax packs for my birthday from a LCS. I have a chance to purchase the rest of them at a good price, and was wondering if I could get some opinions on these two that he got me. The corner folds look good and are uniform, and the roller marks appear to be in tact. Any additional thoughts or concerns you could add would be greatly appreciated!

    Tough to tell as pics are a bit blurry, but corner folds look good and seals look clean on back. If roller lines are intact, I'd say they are authentic.

    Packs look fine to me...are you going to open any? If so, I can tell you with 100% certainty if they are legit if you keep track of the sequence of cards coming out of the pack.

    Well, my dad and I went to a LCS and were able to purchase the rest of the packs from the box. I was disappointed that only 14 remained, but still, it was nice to get them. So now with the one pack I have left from my b-day, I have 15 packs....Just need to find another 21 to complete my box!! Thanks to CPAmike and Grote for their help as I navigate the mine field that is the unopened market not certified by BBCE. Here is a picture of the packs and the box I got!

    Nice assortment of 1980 unopened, Jeremy! Perhaps a Rickey Rookie awaits!
