Ruminations on Error of Smoking Quality Theory

Help me on Vulcanite Restoration

Are you Happy with Dried Out Tobacco in a Trade?
No. Aged tins are always a gamble. If you play the game enough, you’re gonna get some that are compromised. It always sucks, but its just part of the gamble. I promise you, if whoever sent it to you hasn’t had it happen to them, at some point they will. And one day you’ll send someone a tin...- alaskanpiper
