Mr Meteorite Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Are these worth $20 and an hour drive each direction? If I see what I think I see it's very well worth it, I think I see a few that make it worth it...... I think What do you think? Every 2 pics are top/bottom of same view of the jar.

Al Oregon Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 I do see some old and soem new. Looks to be a good variety for sorting and ID'ing (& learning). Newer ones, Vacor, for example in last pic - two yellow base ones. I do see Pelt Rainbo there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclsu Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Quick answer is no, they are probably not worth it. I think all are rather common, and any member on this site could probably put together a better batch of common marbles for you for $20. Save your money, and keep on the hunt. The marbles are certainly out there to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schmoozer Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 That depends on your free time, and funds. Also how many antique stores are along the way🤔. getting started will leave you shaking your head 10years later when you look back and wonder why you bought all those common marbles. i sold 2 5 gallon buckets a few years back at a local show to someone looking to occupy their time and learn the hobby.

I'llhavethat1 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 Did Vacor make a blue and pink like middle of 2nd last picture? Or is that Alley? Not up on my Vacors. For a couple hour drive would it be too far out of the question for the seller to take a couple pics of the marbles out of the jar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I don't think it is Alley. It also looks newer like most in this group. Are they worth it ? I agree NO ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
