    So my kid and I are fairly new to collecting Pokemon cards. We've opened two battle style booster boxes and various booster packs. We purchased a Darkness Ablaze booster box off Amazon and I'm not sure if this was a repack or not. Outer seal on the box seamed normal and I couldn't identify anything on the boosters that looked opened. Few things make me skeptical but curious others take on this.

    1) Pulls don't seem to great, although I'm sure this is subjective and luck always varies.

    2) Received two types of online code card prints. Didn't experience this in our other booster boxes., they were usually the same throughout. Is this normal?

    3) Every online code card had some sorta like indention on it, couple that were pretty bad like someone pushed their finger on it.

    4) Lastly this could be something we aren't aware of but the back of the booster packages show UK CA on them, other boosters I have that we got from target/walmart don't have this.

    5) I can't remember but I believe at least one pack had a card that was facing backwards.
     
    Code cards being bent is weird, but nothing else looks suspicious to me. I've bought 2 booster boxes from Amazon. One was in pretty rough shape on the outside, but I didn't suspect it was tampered with.

    As for the code card being backwards, I've got a few packs where that happens. I also got a pack that had 12 cards (plus the code card so 13) in it. So that alone isn't too suspicious either, in my opinion at least
