Akro gatherer

i have just been told that oxblood can be different colors. you learn something new everyday.

gold in the first and frit on the 2nd. :Party_fest30:

Just in case no one noticed i went on posting anyways. i guess i am a brat. i will continue to joke and not be serious at all (that is for my fantasy football league, in which i won my 5th title in 19 seasons this past year).

that looks like a lemonade oxblood, unsure of pattern, if i see the pic correct. would have been a smoker if better condition.

in my opinion oxblood is a shade of red. not translucent at all. my camera is not here at the moment or i would put some pics up but anywho there are alot of nice examples here and on ebay of oxblood.

i agree 100% with the knowledge but cant there be some humor or fun involved as well.

i am at this time banning myself from posting because i have nothing to offer and am rude. so go ahead and tear down jabos efforts, fight about vintage and contemporary, discuss whatever apparently i am not wanted or needed. so i will be back when i decide that i have learned how to behave and have a better grasp on marbles. i thought it was a fun, light-hearted thing. Never knew it was so serious.

i posted in the other thread about having too much time on their hands and steph has already taken offense to it. you know what, she jumps on people and is always involved in everything but cant take a joke. those who are so thin skinned that they can not function in the real world should not be allowed to participate in life because life is not always a box of chocolates and just find an old bomb shelter and pack it full of goodies. I cannot believe the hypocrisy that lives here sometimes.

I mean no harm but you all have way too much time on your hands.

mine do not glow

Frogs are great to display your marbles on.

i wanna complain...........................................................i went to a certain place where certain tribute and such are made from time to time and it seemed that someone had gone through the trash and picked it good........................................but not perfect. i got myself some pretty nice marbles. take that Duffy!

bottom one is 100% silver oxblood. top left i am unsure.

top right is not oxblood. cause i see into the red.

flower frogs

i knew it. the book of secrets is finally opening. now if we could just get people to believe akro made cateyes we would be somewhere. ps.............gary take your time. i will be at Vienna God willing. have a good one!

i would love some of the shooters. think if i stopped by duffy could sneak me in? :Emoticon-jawdrop:

I have been at the plant digging. I have spoken to a person who has a crazy huge Jabo collection. I know someone who has a box bought directly from the plant. I said this to ask this.........................When did Jabo make the cateyes we sometimes call Japanese cateyes? Or Did Jabo import them and sell them? If they did make them, which I am starting to believe they did, when did they make them? what kinds? how many? I hope this does not make anyone mad but since I dug there at the tribute to friendship run i have been interested in why I dug up so many pop-bottle colored cats. Any help would be appreciated. If the info is top secret then PM me and I wont tell. :Sad_headshake_tweetz:

make sure you go to right hotel. if you go to the wrong one things might get wierd in the in-room trading category :Cartoon_177:

i would be interested..... :Party_fest30:

looks like nice work Steve!

akro halves bid and bid often :Party_fest30:

Jabos are fine. I like all marbles. Heck if someone wants to sell some then go ahead. I mentioned about the number of runs and I guess I opened up the door to some haters. The run I was at was cool and I even got to dig some. If you don't like the tribute runs...........I got some black Jabo industrial marbles I would sell you. :Emoticon-jawdrop:

i do not know who that is. sorry.
