Are you absolutely certain it's a legit cover?

The actual misprint flaws aside, the letters look blurry and the whites are not white with smudges which happens to a far lesser degree on even good repro's. still if you'd ask me the blue ink leaking into the white cover is a big red flag. screams like it being a printed cover.

if you actually want to be sure it's a legit cover. get a real one and look closely at the print. if it's a repro cover you will see that it's more blurry especially in terms of the letters.

also if you want a better opinion on here. show us some huge pictures of the letters on he backside, especially the smaller stuff.  Show also some pictures of the backside in more detail/ bigger pictures do it in chunks for bigger image.

your current pictures are pretty blurry and just give a rough image of the big flaws.

yes I am sure of that the game is sealed. I dont have it here yet but the seller is the nr 1 videogame store in my country. they dont sell fake stuff  and they dont even want stuff they are unsure about or even homebreew stuff.

I took the picture from their website. then I couldnt upload it due to being the wrong file size so i went to paint  and saved it as an different file type.

here is an link to the sold listing maybe those pictures are better for you

Coming from nedgame it does change stuff a bit but still no guarantees that the middle men they got it from didn't just print a cover cause of damage. check the print for sure I'd say. if possible just visit a nedgame and compare it with a normal usa copy.

Nedgame defo the no1 game store in the country in terms of size, but I wouldn't call em experts, they made some huge mistakes in the past. Had so many deals from that store some of the employees know quite a bit but overall I wouldn't say there knowledge is great, abused em so much they even changed some rules thanks to me in which they can alter the price even if you bought it at a certain price their old stock that popped up from time to time was actually crazy

just giving you an example when cover is printed.

from a distance it looked great but than up close. just be sure to play close attention if it's more blurry in comparison to a real copy. even in this misprinted shape it should still be consistent at the normal parts.



right is a fake reprint, they usually have higher quality of front box art so it's harder to notice on those usually (still noticable). but for whatever reason barcodes and small text always gets messed during printing. color diff was mainly water damage but the letters being more blurry was a clear give away.

also definitely do share some huge pictures of the backside in chunks. than more folks can give an actual opinion. cause no guarantees it's legit. middle men could have just messed stuff up or some employee doing some shady stuff. Might have been water damage etc.
