Sheesh .. Fizz/Noah, you came here asking the opinions of others with more knowledge and experience. You got the opinions of others with way more knowledge and experience than you.
Yet, you will still argue with them about your "rescue"? Yes, it appears to be a dark normal. And as already pointed out, if it was a high end morph, the owner would not have just given it to the pet store, and the pet store owners would know exactly what it is and it's history.

Okay maybe he is a dark normal, I don't know, just like everyone else said; you truly don't know, without info, until you breed them. But that doesn't change the fact that I rescued him, yes I say rescue because the pet store didn't even have a heating pad under his tank. They used a heat lamp that i'm not even sure if it was uvb bulbs. Also he had no real hide, only a stick slimmer then his body. And the water seemed to have not been changed since I came in a week earlier of when I got him. I got there to bring him home, and the water bowl was empty only for the owner to coming rushing back with a ceramic bowl filled with water. Also he's probably needed to shed for who knows when. He didn't have a moist hide or anything similar so I doubt they even misted the tank.

I agree with what you're saying, but as someone who runs a rescue that the local pet stores turn to when they get animals dropped off on them, let me say this.....
I have had many higher end morphs of animals come into PETCO of all places. The management there contacts me when they get in surrenders so that I might be able to assess them and find them a permanent home.

The last two reptile rescues we got in were: 1 male hypo translucent leatherback with paradox polkadot spotting and 1 female super pastel Mojave clown ball python.

I know far fetched and a little crazy - these animals weren't in great shape but I was still amazed someone would drop them at a pet store free.

That being said, I think the gecko is normal until proven, but who knows? Maybe something is there or he is a heterozygote. People have turned in crazier things to pet stores! I have seen living proof.

Edit: hypo translucent paradox spotting leatherback is a Bearded Dragon - if it wasnt obvious.
