I'm going to have to call him out. I just have to. This is tiresome!
I just completed a 200+ trade with jimetal7212 and he shortchanged me!

I WANT THAT OTHER PIECE OF GUM!

That's outrageous! Anybody tries short-changing me on a piece of stale gum, we're finished

Stale? It's from the vintage '90s! It has a lifespan of 100 years. It was used to stock up for Y2K. It looks as fresh as when it first came out.

Actually, Jason, you're headed in the right direction the more I think about it. Jim (jimetal7212) is a master collector and it's his way of getting me to become that. So he sent me a VAR. The one without the gum is "a" and the one with is "b".

Oh, 90s! It's still good then. Maybe he can make it up with a stick of Juicy Fruit, via PWE. It's a bit of an upgrade over Topps gum.

In London so just seeing this. Your right Josh, you got me!! 😂 At 1st I thought I screwed something up trying to rush it out the door. Then I thought that wouldn't be like you to call out on the forum. I actually thought about ditching the gum but figured it fits part and parcel with what you were looking for. I think, I think, I may have tortured my son with that missing piece one day. Or maybe it the VAR I meant to submit 🤔. Ah, who can keep track nowadays!!

Jim, I hope your blood didn't boil over before realizing the joke. I'm going through them right now and everything's great. Having a blast here sorting. I hope your enjoying your time there, and that your son's having success, too.

I have a few pieces of gum from the 1977 Topps football Mexican issue around somewhere. Nice pink, green and some other strange colors.

Sounds like something you'd need to send to PSA for grading. Or, to the CDC for quarantining. Don't let North Korea get ahold of that.
