Shamrock, thanks for taking the time to explain in such detail. It made it very clear for me. Pen

Wow, feel like somebody just crapped in my Cheerios.

Who made them, and what was their intended use? Or are the a woopsie, never expected that? Pen

Anyone else hear violins in the background?

Thanks Steph, finally feel like maybe I am getting the hang of it, maybe. Certainly clears up the name for me. Great box and marbles are you the lucky owner? Pen

Thank you for taking the time to show why it is a fake. You explained it so well I could see everything you said. Pen

YES PLEASE. understand it is a fake but why is it a fake? What gives it away as a fake. Thanks Pen

Hey Orbboy or anyone else that can answer this -probably everyone but me- What is the marble in your avatar it is amazing? I should know I am sure but I do not have a clue and have taken the identification books back to the library. Thanks Pen

Hey David has a great plan for absolving you of your sins, that is if you feel guilt which I hope you do not. What board I want to go and transgress now also.

Glad you are here, I have missed your cheerfulness.

Is it a sin if I feel no guilt?

Just the three colors that you see in the pic. On the other side there is a "v" in the mustard color. But the connection is so slow tonight that is the only pic that would load. Not sure what an "eye" is? This thread has been great I was just haunting ebay and looking at parrots and was able to go -THATS not a Parrot it is a trilite. I felt so proud. Thank You everyone Pen

Think I have the camera program worked out here is a pic of my "parakeet" is it? Sorry can't really do the size, do not have a size thinger but it is about half the size of a shooter. If not a parakeet which I now doubt greatly any idea what it is?

Well I have been trying to load my little parrokeet on here but alas it is not happening. My photo program keeps closing on me and the file as it stands is too large. Not even sure it is a parrokeet. But it is definatly smaller then a shooter.

He likes the way extreamly and rare go together. How do you know it is a remelt, and is reamer a technical term or does it just mean the seller is trying to put the marble someplace dark and moist. Pen
