Steph Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 (edited) For auction we have Peltier Glass Toy Marbles: An American Legend, by Sami Arim, Mike Johnson and Gino Biffany. Proceeds will go to forum maintenance. This is my copy. It's in good, almost new condition. Let's call it NM+. The spine is bumped and a couple of pages open more easily than the rest. Winner will pay actual shipping, based on two pounds priority mail in the U.S. from zip code 54241. I will also mail internationally but may need advice as to which is the best way to send. Edit: I will pay the shipping. You can pay for your win through the forum donation tool and I will ship as soon as Jason says the donation went through. Auction ends Sunday, February 9, at noon Central Standard Time. Happy bidding. Edited February 4 by Steph Update shipping cost :) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On eBay, one sold for $362 in December and another for 250 in January. That's why I figured I'd pull my copy out and see what it might be able to do for the forum. Now someone's trying to sell one on the Bay for $899. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
