Hi,
I purchased these boxes @$30 each but I see on eBay the sell for $140+. Am I missing something?
I am curious because the supplier has a lot more available and I don’t want to get ripped off.
Thanks.
Welp.... based on the pics from these completed auctions, you either have resealed product, or there are multiple sealing methods used..... So I guess what you are missing is....... Authenticity!!!

Are there actually counterfeit sealed packs and boxes of Pokemon cards? Or do scam artists open packs, pull the good cards, replace them with commons and then re-seal the packs?

There are definitely resealed packs with fake cards out there. As for removing good cards and replacing them, I'm not sure if that is a thing....
100% fake boxes, biggest give away with these are the way the packs are displayed in your 4th picture. Real booster boxes will have packs displayed like this:

Authentic boxes will have logos on the wrap. These appear to be counterfeit or resealed.
There is a ton of counterfeit Pokémon product hitting the market, so buyer beware.
I got these from a local seller where I live. He typically gives me a good deal if I buy in bulk so that’s why I was asking.
What else has he sold you in bulk before?
We purchase antiques and collectibles from him.
Those appear to be counterfeit.
My son and his friend bought boxes very similar to those from an Ebay seller earlier this year.
The cards in the packs were slick counterfeits and, like your boxes, did not have the correct logo wrap.
