I know it's beat to Hell but man it's still so rare to just see one I would keep it sealed...

I wouldn't either. You always have the choice of opening it. Once you have, you can never unopen it.

I'm just glad it was pretty good, long and drawn out. (that's what she said.)

So, interestingly, there was no no-price books in the pack. They are all regular books as far as I can tell. The pack was split at the top. Of course, the shipper just sent it in a mailer. Still, I’m happy to have it, and the opportunity to chance a rare book.

I already have one of these sealed, so I’m happy to trade this. I’ll assemble it back together. Let me know!

That's the first time I have heard of the Turok being in the blister pack, but also having the UPC. I didn't think that was possible.

Since the pack was split at the top, is it possible that the seller pulled a quick one and swapped out the no-price books for regular books? :?

Actually probably not . . . since if they wanted to pull a quick one, they would have charged more than $13. :lol:
