Real or Fake?

Recommended Posts

I bought this bag of marbles today at an antique store.  The seam looks right, flat staples and the hole is large enough to hang over a capped soda bottle.  Is this a "real" giveaway or just a very good fantasy bag?  Marbles are swirls, probably Alley.  The bag is pretty cloudy.  Does anyone see anything special?

Thanks Alan.  I learned the hard way about "fantasy bags" and I really overpaid in the past for Jabos and newer MK.  I think this one is real though.  Still paid too much but I think it's cool.

You didn’t pay too much if you are happy with it!!!

I'm happy with it Schmoozer, and you are so right!  "Buy it when you see it."  I've put items back before to "think about it" and came back and they were gone!   

Ron, as always, thanks for sharing.  Your knowledge and generosity are very much appreciated.

Many thanks y'all and good hunting!

I have walked away from some mibs only to regret it later. I have also bought mibs, only to regret it later….

as long as you learn from your mistakes, it is good.
