I'llhavethat1 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I've found this forum and knowledge from other seasoned collectors as being helpful. Completed auctions on eBay can give an idea of what somebody paid, but values are soooo subjective. For example, without seeing the marbles in hand, or else a bunch of highly detailed pictures, some people might consider those above marbles to be contemporary and not value them nearly as high as a vintage marble (not saying that's the case here). Marble shows are a good place to get input. Show them to a couple people and see what they say. In my opinion this community is pretty close-knit and a consensus might be reached in terms of rarity/value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg11 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 10,20,30 % higher than the same marble in same condition but in common colors would be my best guess. I would say its more like 10% if you are lucky. Marbles seem to have really taken a nose dive and not many are being sold for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg11 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I hate to say this but I think I sold most of my collection prematurely but just in the nick of time... The hobby is as dead as I have even seen it, lord help us remaining few collectors. The song remains the same... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
