People can do whatever they want to their own property, but I really think applying a new repro label would devalue a game.

Looks like the seller bought and used one of these, and he failed to cut the label to the correct size. Then he went and put the game up for sale for 280$.
I personally can't tell from that image what's going on there, but I'm also on a laptop so I don't have it all blown up either to analyze it like I could in person. I think we need perfect repros of many things, including the boards and chips as it's about the games, not how much one dude can dick another's wallet due to a propped up hype machine. Yet I do agree, a new repro label should be priced accordingly and should be mentioned when sold as I've said before. If you do it, expose it and let the value fall where others feel it belongs. Hiding is just deceitful. If they did buy a fake and cut it badly, that's just damned lazy and for what they asked they should have got another and cut it right and noted it as such. In the end it's a sticker, the guts are what truly matters. If NA said it's real, it surely is as they're the #1 money machine forum out there snooping on everyones games to help maintain and puff up their value so they'd know. I mostly have a good feel seeing things, but without some huge images it's not hard to get tripped up.
