my 2 cents worth? this is just a rough guess okay? haha. I am not saying my opinion is a fact and it is the truth.
it's old stock. poorly kept. poorly handled. scratches here and (on plastic tub goods) there.

-I received my goods from Bodybuilding.com. some of them like kena hentam. probably due to handling. from here to there. here to there. so many hands held it. however, I've never received goods in a state where the sticker looking in such a poor condition though.
the sticker? oh well, it's either the heat or liquid that caused it. could have gotten wet sometime somewhere. I don't know. like I said. I've never encountered such problem.
but yeah, these kind of things do occur once in a blue moon. even local suppliers like fitnutritions encounter problems like dented tubs (big enough to be visible)
here's to give you an idea on what I'm talking about
