akroorka Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 One of these recently sold on ebay for $369.25 tax not included---empty, but with a very nice pouch and the box inserts. The box was not in as near as fine as shape as yours, prettty shabby I would call it. I tried but failed--too many dollars for me. Those mossies may seem like an easy find until you try to back-fill a box. I have not noticed until recenty that the pouch holding box insert was stapled in. I learn something new everyday. It is a great box and I can't wait to see the other two. Marble--On!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 I see all 3 now, Wow !! well worth the wait. On a side note, did you buy these complete or have to do a little backfilling ?? Just curious, I've heard backfilling can be a long drawn out nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite a nightmare Chad, although I have been known to dream about certain marbles that I search for👻. Backfilling, according to Hoyle, is very rewarding. It takes tons of research and that is the name of the game for me. It also keeps me away from the spending frenzy when I am focusing on several vs many marbles. It is the one reason that I collect pouches---some are, and some are not---then there are the ones that are so rare that there is no research to be found. I love the ones with advertising and back researching the companies that may be involved. History is a great thing in my domain. I can pick out incorrectly back-filled boxes in the wink of an eye--most makers. Sadly, most filled boxes for sale are not correct and for the most part I will keep my opinions on reserve. I have seen many "correct boxes" on this and other sites but far more are just not right and I am OK with the pleasure that they may bring to those that own them. Easy-peasy is a fast way towards a sale. Hard to find is a collectors dream. I collect, bottom feeder that I am and right is the only way for me, regardless of the time that it takes. It is a very rewarding thing, for me at least. Once filled, the boxes loose their value to me.-Just a completed task, soon to be forgotten.--next one up! I am like a Crow searching for bright things for the nest---certain bright things, regardless of value to the Chipmunks of the world. It is after all---all in the search and all in the collectors head what needs to be searched for. Backfilling for me is a great thing--regardless of the miss-spent money and the sometimes massive amount of time involved. Very rewarding--Marble Nirvana. Marble--On!! and dream on as well!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
