Is this legit or a fake? Help

So I just recently bought this Spider-Gwen and I noticed that the comic book pages are not aligned with the actual cover and back page. Also, the comic inside the CGC is tilted a little rather than being straight throughout. The label up on the top is also more lighter than my other CGC's but I do not see a crack on the corners showing that the case has been opened before.

You must ask yourself. Why would someone replace this book? 

No, I don't think it's been manipulated.

I don't know so that's why I'm asking y'all.

Are you sure that's not the microchamber paper sticking out?

I'm hoping so. I asked the seller and he said it was the inert paper. But he has a few feedback from people saying the CGC's are open. This one looks fine but I just wanted to make sure.

Why in the Wide Wide World of Sports would you buy a slab from someone with feedback complaining about opened slabs?

I cracked one of the newest cases not long ago to do a resub...  Maybe its because its the only case I've ever cracked but I don't see any way for someone to crack open one of these without it looking like it.  They are tough cases.  Also, to @oakman29 point case manipulation is likely to occur with high dollar keys.

+1

There's no way to open the new cases without it being very apparent that it's been opened. This one looks fine.

If I were the sort to try to manipulate slabs, I'd be practicing on low value  ones before attempting high value ones.

If I too were the type, I certainly wouldn't try to sell my practice round books...

Right, because greed doesn't enter the equation.

Yeah, that is definitely micro-chamber paper sticking out.

I third the microchamber paper theory.
