PlanB Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 has anyone else seen a pelt nlr with oxblood like the superman in the link above I would be very much surprised if there was any oxblood on this marble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTAndrea Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Ah, the old "what is true oxblood" question! Does anyone have a link to that very heated debate years ago on Alan's Marble Connection? Anyhow, I just won a "buy it now" CA flame from this seller and hope it's as good as the picture and description. Just took a look at the "bad sellers" list pinned on the Board of Inquiry and noticed that it doesn't have any seller names since 2011. Did we give up on this, or do most forum members simply ask others about a seller on the main forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Why do I have bad vibes about the name honeybern? Am I remembering something that isn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I don't know a single thing about this seller. But as an objective observer, it seems to me that it would be reasonable to inquire about the need for a name-change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstmmrbls Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Is starting off your description insulting anyone reading it very good marketing. What a douche. I read that first line and for some reason Jeff Hale came to mind(LOL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wediscount2 Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Got to watch those Palm Springs Ca. sellers, if they can't shaft you they are pro's at "TRYING" to extort innocent sellers with pristine feedback, I can attest to that.

lstmmrbls Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 I almost went for that one but it appeared far from mint with pocket wear completely covering the marble. Let us know? (click on pic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage-28 Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Yeah, I thought long and hard on it, but with the wear you mentioned, I just couldn't pull the trigger. I'm curious to see if the wear on his marbles is true to the pics, or if its some sort of photographing anomaly?? Because his grades don't correspond to what I'm seeing in his pics.

lstmmrbls Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 there just isn't enough shine on that marble. It looks really worn to me. But he does provide a good return policy even if that is a pain in the butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
