I thought I was the only one that set an alarm for auctions. Lol

I'm only a few marbles away from being in the poor house myself. 😂 It's a very addicting hobby and you can truly go overboard which I have. I really need to learn how to pace myself.

Very nice score!
-
OMG. Is that a giant parrot??? Jealous!!
-
Ha. I was kidding. By all means, bid on what you want. I'm totally ruthless on eBay. Just call me the marble sniper. lol

What makes a submarine versus a st. joseph's coat?

So it was you that outbid me on that sparkler last night.....hmmm....😂

Not trade beads but these are phenolic resin beads which are highly sought after by collectors, especially the darker ones. I lucked out and found these about a month ago at a local store. I think they are German but I’m not positive. The photos make the beads look small but the largest on this strand are about 20-25 mm.

@schmoozer those are lovely! Not sure of the value but I would pay that. If you’re on Facebook at all, join the group “bead collectors helping bead collectors” and they should be able to tell you for sure.

Another amazing marble I'll likely never be able to afford. 😩

And then you get home to realize the package is still stuck at a USPS facility for another 3-4 days after the estimated delivery. First world problems. 😫

@wvrons, great info. Thank you!!

I have another newbie question. Is aventurine in marbles actually the mineral aventurine, or was it at one time real aventurine?
-
It has one hole on it. Maybe a hit mark?

Well I live in Minnesota and work in Wisconsin. I’m literally right on the border of both states. Fortunately I’m not a sports fan. -

Added a few more pee wees to my German collection.

Thank you gentlemen.

I do that in the summer. It’s difficult to have chicks outside in the winter with the water freezing. I do love hen hatching over incubators.

Thank you for your help!

Don't you wish they could all be akro? 🙏
