I know if it seems too good to be true... but some of those packs are on my list.

    I would not bid on any of these packs.

    Ebay is a virtual minefield for raw wax, particularly for anything pre-1980.

    The fact that their 50s and 60s packs are selling for in the $100 range should be reason enough to know that they are fake.

    No pix of reverse of pack as well. Something to hide?

    One of the negative feedbacks is that PSA said they weren't legit. Stay away.

    But the seller said the buyer was a scammer--who should we believe???

    Well if I'm the one spending the money I'd err toward the buyer.

    Thanks peeps for the feedback. I can't believe eBay is letting this guy sell!

    There are more than a few guys that make their living off resealed packs on eBay and have done so for years. eBay tends to turn a blind eye on this kind of fraud.

    All junk, even the pics are not legit. I bought a 62 FB pack (for the nicely centered wrapper only, just like the one he currently has posted!) and didn't get the pack shown. Of course it was bogus, which I suspected, but I called him out on if he's going to sell resealed packs he should at least sell the pack shown in the auction. He refunded my money without comment. I got my wrapper I wanted for free out of the deal :)

    Is it worth it to bid going for the wrapper? Or are the wrappers fake also?

    The wrappers are likely authentic but I wouldn't expect any of these packs to grade at PSA.
