Maybe not, but since there is no photo to confirm or not confirm, it is a clever sales pitch, using titillating language...new, unopened, blahblahblah. Sure, it is a somewhat misleading, however, without seeing the edge, nobody can say the seller is not complying with HPA. As to the photo used, it could be the piece being sold.
