Someone probably didn't read the auction close enough and maybe thought it was a retail box and not a blaster? you can still find these at targets and walmarts so they aren't scarce like they were when strasburg came out

Something smells fishy to me.....not sure why though. One has done a 42% of their last 30 days bidding with this guy...the other 15%.

This might sound like a dumb question as I'm back in the industry after a long hiatus. But how can you tell the difference weathera box is a Hobby box and which one is a Blaster box?

Hobby says Hobby on the box or has the H in a circle on the box

Well at least it doesn't seem like the seller is doing anything shady. There are plenty of pictures showing what is pretty obviously a Blaster, and then it says, in pretty big letters that its for 1 Blaster box. He didn't put it in the title but there are clear pictures and he clearly states it in the description so I don't really have a problem with that.

Intentionally left "Blaster" out of the title...pretty scummy seller, IMO. I know it's the buyer's responsibility to read the entire listing, but that's a shady seller.

I never feel bad for buyers who fail to read descriptions. The decision to bid is in the buyer's control. The description pretty boldly and clearly states that it's a blaster.

I still have an issue with a seller who leaves out a key word in the title so they can keyword spam instead...like I said, it's the buyer's responsibility to read the description. But the seller also shouldn't intentionally leave "blaster" out of the title.

Eh...it happens with any and all advertising. If the buyer is that influenced by the title, in most cases I would say it's a 'fool and his money' situation.
This is not to stir a 'but that doesn't make it right' argument, just that it is so simple to avoid confusion through one's own actions and research.
