they have somewhat of a double-over seal vertically down the back. usually if the hang-tab is there, its legit. At least that is my experience with 32x sealed games, and my experience isn't all that high, but still I have seen a couple my way come and go. If anyone else has any other input, speak up.

Out of the two 32X games I have sealed, they both have the overlapping seal down the middle of the back, and a hanging tab.

Well it does look a little odd at the top, but it's probably legit. And if not, it certainly looks mint as hell, except for that weirdness at the top. That kind of thing is very common with sealed Genesis/32X games though, especially if they were ever hanging from the hang tag for an extended period of time. If I needed it, I'd take a chance on it. First time I've ever even seen a sealed one on ebay. If you get it and it looks resealed, then just resell it on ebay.

It looks as if it has been neatly slit open so to allow access to the game without disturbing the rest of the box.

*shrug* I don't know how anyone can cast judgement based on that pic alone.

Well if you read his answer to the one question about it, and the note that he added about having some additional pics available upon request now, it certainly seems to be as legit as his other items do. In fact, I'm bidding on one of his sealed Genesis games, since he has one that I've been trying to find for a long time now, so he seems honest enough for me deal with him. If he continues to offer those sorts of items, then I'm gonna be bidding on alot more of his auctions in the future, if he has anything else on my wishlist. I'd go for that Web of Fire myself, but I really don't need an extra copy of it.
Thanks for calling my attention to this seller, Vectorman! And good luck if you bid! I'd bid at least $100 to snipe that WOF myself, but you may want to bid just a little more than that, in case someone else has the same idea. It probably won't go as high as that, but it might. I wouldn't say more than $125 for it. And even then, only if you're truly desperate for a sealed one. Keep in mind that a used complete copy typically goes for more than what this one is at right now though, so it should go for considerably more than what it's at right now. The other bidders surely know that too. So you'll probably have to fight dirty for it if you really want it, and you might want to nuke it up to $150, if you can afford to risk having to pay that much for it.
I know that it probably won't go for anywhere near $150, but I've seen stranger things happen on ebay. I had a $200 nuke backfire on me one time that ended up costing me $150 in the end, so definitely don't bid more than you can actually afford to pay for it, in case you do get stuck with a high bid. The nuke that backfired on me was for a game that was only at $50 in the last few seconds. I knew that it would go for over $100, but I wasn't sure how much more than $100, so I just plugged in $200 and kept my fingers crossed. Then I watched in horror as the last two snipes came in after mine. And suddenly there I was, the winning bidder for $150 that I wasn't really expecting to be that much. So you have to be careful if you use a nuke!
I can hardly wait to see what this one does end up going for though, just so I can see if my estimations for it are correct. Really $100 for it should cover it, and even then it probably won't go for quite that much. But it does look like the high bidder on it right now is playing to win it. So I know that the chances are he's willing to bid alot more than what he's bidding on it now, since he was the one who placed the opening bid on it. He may be at his max right now, but it's a safe bet that he's gonna put in a snipe for it at the last second, if he hasn't put in a high proxy for it with that bid. Usually bids like that are warning shots. Sometimes they really are a person's final bid, but typically bids like that are a person's way of warning everyone that they'd better be serious about it, if they really want it, because they're very serious about it. And that bidder's rating shows that he's a very serious bidder too.

WOW, it looks like the high bidder really is playing to win! This one may go over $100 before it even gets to sniping time. But whatever the high bidder put on it is probably his final bid. He must be at work or someplace where he's unable to join in all the sniping fun. Which means he may have nuked it, and if he did, you'll play hell getting it away from him. However, if you can afford to risk it, you can drive his final price up and still have a fair chance of winning it.

WHOA! Well I guess the biggest nuke won it! Was it anyone from here? I really didn't expect it to go for that much. I thought that $150 would be sufficient to nuke it, but I guess someone else must've thought that even that much wasn't enough! And obviously it wasn't! Well, now we know!
