Sealing of boxes with tape?

I'm relatively new to legos -- at least unopened boxes. I purchased 2 large boxed items the other day to sell here at a retail discounter. The side flaps of the boxes were taped down with heavy, but small pieces of tape, instead of being glued down.

The tape has a small black band at each spot exactly where the tape hits the box edges. One piece of tape on each box has a number on it in black. Example:
521W7.

Are these some sort of factory (re)certification? Can I sell these as NIB never opened? or?

Thanks

I'll answer my own question. That's the way they're supposed to be. Saw some at Target, and all of the larger boxes were "taped".
