Default For Sale: WAX WRAPPERS and a few Unopened Cellos

Well guys, I didn't realize just how much wax product I have ripped over the years!
I pulled out a tote I had and found all of this stuff I had squirreled away in it.

I don't need it all so I thought I would offer some of it up here.

First I would like to comment on the Gum. I know there was some controversy on the CU board
concerning the Gum. Seems a member over there sold some large lots of Gum(I believe 79 Topps Baseball), on ebay and it became clear that "Pack Resealers" were the main buyers of it.
Many felt the Gum should be disposed of. While I definitely understand the issue of selling large
lots of the Gum, I very much disagree that it holds no collectible value and should simply be disposed of.
In fact as many of you know, the gum was a part of what made card collecting so special to us as kids.
I keep a few pieces of it preserved with many of my sets as companion items that, to me helps complete
the sets and status that special stick of gum held to many young card collectors.
T.C.G. - Topps Chewing Gum.. The very essence of the company was the GUM and it very much holds a
special collect ability and place in my collection. A large lot on Ebay I can see, But I see these as must have companion pieces to each and every set in my collection.

Shipping is $2.50 for one or all
