Kind of like that Bubblebathgirl dude selling the empty wrappers AND gum from the 1970s or 1980s products. Not cool.

Well said Leon. Both Jim and bubblegumgirl are in it for themselves and nothing else. They dont care about the hobby. Its a fact that the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound and thats why some people appear bright, until you hear them speak.

Selling and collecting the wrappers from card products is not a problem...selling the gum with them is right on par with selling these cracked cases.

I think you'd be surprised at how many people who claim to "care about the hobby" care most about what the hobby can do for them.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
