Fake pack by tjs6121?

So the top pic is from a 72 pack that BBC is selling and the bottom pic is one tjs6121 is selling. It appears to me that the gum size in the PSA graded pack is larger (length and width) than that being sold by tjs6121. Any thoughts?

    Check the waxgold thread started by summerof68 for all you need to know about tjs6121 aka boyerendeavorsllc...stay away!

    Edit: checking the size of the gum in a pack is a sure-fire way to determine a fabricated pack, as the larger sized gum used by Topps in the early '70s is much tougher to come by than the wrappers from those years..

    Good info - Thanks.

    You'd think these POS criminals who constantly do these scam packs would be "clever enough" to put in the right size gum. I mean nobody is gonna chew the gum anyway...couldn't be too hard to make in a kitchen some sort of pink slab confection to the right size, and place it in the fake unopened pack...but I guess scammers by their nature are basically lazy.
