Has my new comic been tampered with?

Hi All,

Just purchased my first CGC comic from Ebay UK - a Shazam #1 (1973) from a 100% positive feedback seller that has been an Ebay member for 9 years.  Comic looks in pretty good condition (to my untrained eye) and I verified the serial number on the CGC site.

The seals on all four corners look intact and there are no visible cracks anywhere on the case.  It is, however, noticeable that the top of the case is not fully sealed along the seam.

It's a new style CGC case and I may just be super-paranoid as it is my first purchase.  I also have nothing to compare it to, so it's hard to make a judgement

Would be delighted if anyone could help and let me know if there is anything I should do.

Many thanks from the UK.

I don't think the outer case is meant to be fully sealed around all four edges ? As long as the posts are fine, I think you are good.

This. The seams are rough or opaque at times, but this looks to be OK.
