Here’s the board on mine you can tell where it’s been repaired.

I see, yes, mine hasn't been repaired. I'm planning on grading it though if no others step forward.

I got the box and manual with mine and my manual has a oval seal on the inside first page, I was told that only round seal manuals for Qbert exist.

Lovely!

Mine is missing the back label but it doesn’t look like someone removed it.

That label can be removed and the place cleaned easily but yes it looks like yours perhaps didn't have it. Are we the only ones with this variant? It looks extremely clean yours though.  Nice, but I'm pretty confident mine is not a refurb though

No, it's an 85 rev-a back label.

Nope, wish it was.

that’s the only photo I have of one too.

I'm the owner aswell of this Qbert oval 3 screw.

The only country that had control over the box art and labels in the Americas was Gradiente (and its subsidiary Playtronic), Brasil. It's been seen on plenty of games. 

The rarest I've seen besides that, are unreleased games in Mexico, and different seals with even extra translated booklets, but never a different art box, that happened only in Brazil. (Besides the polemic Venezuelan counterfeit Nes releases)

Since they started (Brazil) they've been a bit too much rogue on their own and had full control on their boxes and labels, even after Nintendo approved them as official distributors (they started counterfeiting Nes games and reverse engineering the system). It's not Ntsc per se though, those were Pal M engineered. But if I had to bet, that would be the only one place where they did that. Brazil. Evidently those games were also sold in other places like Argentina and countries near them.

Nice

Alright then. '88 pcb. 5 screw.

it didn't sell for that much actually, like $80- I wasn't really sure if it was real or a label swap and mentioned that in the ebay listing. Since a couple more have been found, I think it may have been real now though. This was like 5 years go.

Well yes, 5 years ago I remember people buying sealed SMW´s for 100-200 dollars.

I´m the owner of this cart, it´s taken me years to find one with all the correct details, dates and data, it all adds up, label, pcb, shell. There´s of course some minor damage due to its age and being "loose", but no signs of foul play on it. Might be open to offers or trades though.
