Most likely another resealing scammer.
The shrinkwrap does look weird on Super Mario RPG and Illusion of Gaia.

I don't think he's resealing games himself.. he's bought stuff from me before and seems like a good guy. I made the same comment about his mario rpg; he showed me the auction where he bought the game a while back from haywardjp. haywardjp was selling lots of these resealed display copies a couple years ago.
It's definitely a reseal, but it's also pretty clear he didn't reseal it himself.

Which also brings to the point why he's selling them in a pack and not seperately.

although I have a couple of old sealed snes games, that were never opened for sure, and they look like that.

Yeah, with the other three titles it's hard to tell. But the mario rpg is an impossibility.

Can somebody explain to me why 'For Display Only' copies of games would be sealed anyways?

Or contain the game inside it?

They wouldn't be, that's exactly the point. It must be resealed by the very fact it's a display box.

is there anyway to tell if it is resealed?

OK, what's to understand here? It's in a box that was shipped flat and EMPTY to the stores. Never was wrapped in original manufacture. Now it's wrapped. Hmmm :hmm:
Maybe there was a mistake at the factory and they accidentally slipped a game into the display box?!?! The game in the auction is actually ultra-R@RE!!
