That's half of the deal with unopened. You don't know what's inside. If you knew, and knew the conditions, what would be the point?

There was a big debate on that, and most felt that, unless it turned out to be not-unopened, he wasn't deserving of a refund. But BBCE refunded anyway, I'm sure for PR.

Apparently, he sold the individual wax packs and was announcing the purchaser of each pack prior to opening them, on his video.

After opening the first several packs, it appeared that the gum had caused the last 3-4 cards in each pack to become stuck to each other and causing rips as he attempted to separate them. The guy announced that he was not going to open any more packs and intended to contact the seller of the wax box for a refund or substantial discount.

Is this a thing? If you purchase an unopened box isn't the only guarantee that the box was unopened. I don't see how there can be any guarantee as to the condition or viability of the enclosed packs.

Am I missing something?
