I do have some polished Pelts that a friend was kind enough to share with me awhile back. I'll dig em out this morning and get some shots in. They do have a very strange appearance. I have a few handmades that I might like to see polished, but still not sure about it yet. -Jess

The skies were really dark when I left work, about a mile later looking up, I spotted this tornado!! I couldn't believe it, I've lived in Florida for 10 years and this is the first one I've seen. I was pretty excited until it started raining sideways, lightning started dropping around me, and then the hail started. Lightning struck the traffic light which was about 50 yards in front of and knocked the lights out. It was pretty scary! Thanks for looking -Jess

I thought I would post a picture of a marble which I know has been buffed, for reference. You can tell it's been buffed by the way the white whispy glass is not all connected, if you understand what I'm saying. It's a very nice marble, but I like to know when I'm buying a buffed or polished marble, doesn't hurt to spread the knowledge. The seller listed it as a buffed marble, so I wasn't duped, I bought it to use as a reference. Does anyone else have any good pictures of buffed/polished marbles? Or have any other tell-tale signs? Thanks, -Jess

Hi Edna, In that first picture that you posted this morning, the first marble in the second row down, is that Blue, Orange, AND Green?? If it is, I haven't seen one like that before. and Pedidoll (sorry, I don't know your name) That's a buckskin, in your first picture, very cool. -Jess

Craig, now you have me really curious, If you are finding these great Akros on luck while looking for CACs and Pelts, what do those collections look like? Cause you have some really great Akros there -Jess (I'm really liking that second shooter, that is crazy)

Edna, that's perfect And in that very last photo, do you have any more photos of that mib, first in the top row? That looks very interesting. . . . -Jess

I've been collecting for about 5 years now, when I have a little extra $ mostly. I've been meaning to get a black light for awhile now. Thank you Edna

I'm not sure. I'm, uh, kind of embarrased to say I don't have a UV light -Jess

And some blue. Thanks -Jess

Thank you Edna

Edna, those last few photos WOW! Especially in that last photo, that 2nd marble in the second row and the third marble in the third row! And that ENTIRE 3rd photo - ESPECIALLY that 2nd row and that bottom row in the first photo. LOL, okay - all of them, you've got me all freaked out. -Jess Here's another shot of a few of my favorites.

Any idea if she is okay? Or if she is, if she's going to correct the "issues"? I had a purchase back in April, which I haven't received yet, but I also haven't left any negative feedback, either. Giving him/her the benefit of the doubt. Thanks, -Jess

BTW, I forgot to add in my second post of pics, the black and white cork is a black base with a white cork. I think every other B&W cork I have is a white base. -Jess

:Emoticon-jawdrop: My eyeballs are popping out of my head! And I'm at work, damn it! Edna, those oxblood dishes are amazing! I can't wait to get home to take a good look at all the posts here. I have a few Vitros, but my collection is mostly Akro. -Jess

- On this marble forum, Feel free to add, I can not see enough Thanks - Jess

Eyelash Closeup and the Akro stamp -Jess

LMAO! Steph you win. David, my two marbles are Akro, not Master, looks like Griff's is Akro too. Just curious, why do you think they are Master? -Jess

More eyelashes - -Jess

THAT WOULD BE TERRIBLE. NO MORE EYELASHES!!!! I don't want to see them. :Sad_headshake_tweetz: :icon_lmao: That is a crazy eyelash, Griff, I love it!!

These are the longest eyelashes I've ever seen, must be Maybelline -Jess

Very cool colors, I love the base! It looks Pelt to me also, especially the blow-out holes in picture #3 and the what looks like a seam in picture #5. Nice find -Jessica

Thanks I was pretty excited to see that oxblood, I don't have any others like it. Lol at built in marble stand. I love the feathering on yours - Pelts, is it? -Jess
