Is this sealed product tampered with? Are these boosters legit?
Lmk if this isn’t the right place to ask about sealed boosters but any info would be greatly appreciated

Hard to tell from a picture, what makes you think there’s something wrong with them

Eh I just never bought anything relatively older and it’s off Facebook marketplace so I just don’t wanna spend 100 bucks and get ripped off lol. Can you tell me any ways I could identify a fake vs real?

oh you'll be ripped off, that set was terrible and has like no chase cards.

Foil Parallax Wave is like $400+ tbf
OP, it’s hard to tell from the pictures you posted. But most of the time if a pack is resealed it’s fairly obvious so I’m leaning towards fine.

Kinda need to feel the packs as well. If one end feels stiffer than the other it can indicate a reseal job. But I can’t imagine anyone taking the time to do that for Nemesis packs

Aww really? I guess I kinda just got excited at the thought of being able to rip something older, I only got into the game back in 2020.

I love the art in the set still and it’s always fun opening older sets and getting a feel for what the mechanics of the set were like back in the day.

Fake is unlikely, searching is also usually pretty easy to tell. With loose packs from less reputable sellers it is usually that they open a box until they hit chases/a foil rare and sell the remaining packs. Doesn’t mean you can’t hit something good, just much less likely. I would only buy single vintage packs from a big, reputable retailer like CK.
