  1. It might be the sweetest deal but I, and I assume many of us, simply can't afford THAT much money for a marble with the times like they are. I just sucked-it up and bought a $20 red flame Alley and that was a lot for me with my fixed income budget.
  2. It's all about being in the right place at the right time!!!!!
  3. I wish I had a dozen of them - it'd make retirement a lot easier...lol
  4. Gene - I could only get the first pix to load?????
  5. Not only that - I have seen others similar that turned out to be just fantasy bags! <--- fake, intentionally put together to fool people.
  6. Yes, I had these 2 cateye marbles calling to me to join them in holy union forever...lol
  7. It's a nice marble . I have noticed that Mexico marbles have those dent lines a lot in them. The quality of workmanship leaves a lot to be desired I feel.
  8. I have a small collection of caged marbles and those look like they belong there...lol!!!! Nice marbles!!!!!
  9. I think it could pass for a miniature Jupiter...lol
  10. I made them using little chips of stained glass. I am not sure of what to call them other than stained glass chip marbles...lol. Have any suggestions?
  11. Just thought I'd let you know on my progress. Since I started actively collecting older marbles,remelting Jabo marbles and remelting slags I have reconditioned/remelted/repaired over 600 marbles!!!!! (This has been since March 20th of this year!)
  12. I have made marbles with those "lines" by using 2 different techniques. One was when I uses my glass scissors and made a cut right into the hot glass and the other is called a single fold technique. We call those "lines" folds = cut lines. I truly appreciate your help and I am learning so much!!!!! Thanks!
  13. Absolutely correct - it can "explode" at anytime so these marbles are not safe!
