Steph Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I guess there might be some champs in the bag. Many are not. It's been backfilled. This thread gives some insight: Hurry, Hurry, Hurry,. Al mentions the guy in Florida who was in the business of selling backfilled and totally fantasy bags in the 1990's. I got some from someone in Florida about 5 years ago. May have been the same guy. I think one of the Champ bags I got from him might actually have had champs in it. But I still think it was backfilled. It was full of teeny amber clearies. That could make sense for Champ since the last time I saw teeny clearies they were in a bicentennial bag which I got for Christmas in 1976. But all the same color? That doesn't sound right. Sounds more like someone who bought factory surplus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not really into collecting only bought them cheap. I may have bought these at Metrolina Expo in Charlotte NC. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 When the Hardy's bought the warehouse contents in Pennsboro there were lots of bags, headers, and marbles. They filled some. Edna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
