Not at all, I fully believe 99% of people bidding on the gum want to reseal packs. This just seems like such a well done replica that the same thing would happen. It's great the seller makes it more than clear this is a replica but what about the next guy? Or the guy after that? And while I have absolutely zero authentication skills, it looks better (at least to me) than a lot of the junk being sold as real.

Anyways I suppose in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter all that much to me personally but I think it's an interesting topic to think about.




And one last sidenote. What would the value be placed on this ball if it was real? Something astronomical I imagine.
