Slow shipper...starting to wonder if I got scammed..the ole found in a wall routine...

This is a nice lutz that sold on ebay, wish I was high bidder 1 1/3" red and orange $455.00 13 bidders

lol interesting read on the comments they posted.

giant purple is mint, almost 1-1/2 7/8 swirl board. lots of black and English colors

this popped up this morning as a "buy it now" I picked it up, just different, surface looks bumpy

picked up another one of these cheap solitare sets. 20 bucks

they look pretty clean to me, and a great assortment...

7/8 solitare set on ebay... I would love to own this one...

MFC horde discovered in Pennsylvania The marbles were found in a wall of a house, I'm not kidding either... I bought the entire lot, big ones and all sizes and colors. I should have them in hand later this week.

that massive over 2 inch banded I got came from this seller, and its flat out killer, original surface. His stuff seems to be mixed around a bit, some polished, some new, some great.

made in Bulgaria or the real deal?

how do the pontils look, the insertion point? rip them suckers open, let's check it out, verify they are not from a bulgarian carnival

"maybe from east german circus carnival shooting" This time sulphides... amazing find LOL http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nice-german-hand-made-marble-/351105106762?pt=Marbles&hash=item51bf7ec34a

well there is one thing for sure... they picked two great examples, so these are probably salesmen samples to be hung in a window display or curtain accessories like Bob suggested. Perhaps even a watch maker or jewlery maker got the pair and made them for a display... Where did you get them Bernie?

anyone care to take a guess at the value with the cage and without the cage on these two premium mint examples?

If they were curtain tie backs you would assume clear would be the color choice. I think they are store display items. Hang them in the store front window and catch peoples attention... I still would take them apart... thats just me.. I like taking things apart.

I would be so tempted to take them out of the cage...

The big monster banded turned out to be really nice. Original surface, latticino core in the interior.

I agree, Brians are much nicer. some of these are nice design... just a bit messy

The marbles are selling very well, some nice examples, the guy is actually turning out some pretty nice marbles. love the story This AMAZING glass marble is part of a larger lot. It is the one and only. Years ago my father worked in a east German circus-carnival shooting which toured the countries of the Eastern Bloc there parents were shooting at targets to win these incredibly handmade marbles for their children. And then he changed his job so these marbles were in forgotten our old house until several months ago when found them again. I do not know where these beautiful marbles are made but sure and I guarantee they are at least 47 years
