Bumping for more opinions.

My twisted eyes go to a lot of them on this board. Some nice Jah-Bow for sure.

Sometimes you get lucky because sellers don't know what they have. Sometimes you get ripped off because sellers don't know what they have.

Never, EVER, trust a seller. When in doubt, post pictures here and we'll try to help.

The bad part about antique shops it the majority of vendors don't know what they have so they ask an insane amount for their clearies and game pieces. You try to talk them down to get the value of a specific marble in the jar you have your sights on, but they are insistent that their garbage marbles are worth $50 a jar. It's pretty frustrating.

Thank you!

I’m pretty new at this yet. I’ve only been collecting since the fall. I purchased a lot of large lots through Craigslist (I put a want ad up), local antique and resale store, and now I purchase mostly on eBay. I scored most of my rare ones on eBay due to poor photos by the sellers. Sometimes you just get lucky. As I see more marbles, I get a better idea of which are the more common/less collectible ones. It’s taken me awhile to figure this out though. Now of course my eyes are gravitating towards the more spendy ones. 🤣

Thank you everyone.

Not jabos. There is hope! 🤣

If it is a jabo, is it a joker encore?

Is it wrong to hold onto an ounce of hope?

Yeah. I know!! My thoughts exactly.

@akroorkawill probably know right away.

I hope but I wouldn’t be super sad if it’s jabo either.

What is OG Marble Guru?

Just won this lot and I'm wondering if the very bottom right is jabo or akro. Or maybe it's impossible to determine based on one shot?

That's a long time to wait for marbles. 😩

I was saying Jah-Bow too! 😆

I have two red and purple corks. Great color combo.

That looks like it could be it, without the white though. Is that a tootsie roll?

Haha. Thanks! I'm liking peltier more and more. The nice ones are so expensive though! I'm a corkhead too, but I love master and vitro as well.
