Yeah... I'm pretty confident that the Ebay seller, from whom I purchased the re-sealed Jack Bros., also wasn't aware that it was a phoney. He had kept it sealed in his collection and in as best as possible condition for who knows how long, and when he listed it, he seemed to make every attempt to list every imperfection on it, but he didn't mention the sticker residue on the front of the box in the upper right corner, which again, I could not see myself until I removed the shrink wrap. Thus, I think he was deceived as well when he originally purchased it. It was a good job, too. It had a horizontal seam on the back, which, however, was covered by a security device line of some sort, I believe, and was also in a slightly different location than the typical seams. It also had the seams on either side of the box. It wasn't until I actually had the game in my possession that I could feel with my hands that the shrink wrap material felt slightly different than the typical material used for such games. I wondered, though, if perhaps Atlus had used different material than the rest of the companies. Once I saw this auction, though, with the material and horizontal seam line that looked exactly like all the rest of the officially sealed games.... that's when I knew for certain. :/
Oh well, it's still a true and complete copy in very nice condition, so no loss there in that department. ;-)

Hey, at least the back of the box looks fully in tact and sticker-free. That alone has got to be worth $800.00 right? ;-)
