Ebay - Classic Rock Master Tapes for sale?

I was looking at Nick Drake items on Ebay and came across this listing REEL TAPE 2Track 15 Ips GEN.MASTER TAPENick Drake – Pink Moon | eBay . There appear to be loads of other classic albums available.

I am no expert on master tapes (or copies thereof) but why would they have photocopies of the actual master tape labels on them? The one on the Nick Drake box is clearly a copy of the one from 2012 box set with just the edges trimmed off. https://i.discogs.com/Nh6qDYYTgUiWC...TQwMTcy/ODgtMTM3OTIwMTI0/Ni05MzM4LmpwZWc.jpeg

It's noticeable that the make of tape used on these copies often matches what is on the photos from the archives as well.

Too good to be true?

 

Maybe @Steve Hoffman has an idea. If anyone would know I think it would be him.

 

Could these be safety copies? Or used for LP mastering?

 

Too good to be true.

 

It is called stolen product from record companies. Columbia crushed a storage unit sniffer in Nashville who came across the Columbia Nashville reels he bought at a storage unit.
