This is going to sound very naive, but are they connected to block auctions? I’m not familiar with the eBay seller that has this marble, I found it just because I was looking for bricks. Admittedly I’m still a greenhorn Edit: (I just looked it up and answered my own question) If they say something is a CAC, how reliable are they? Is there still decent room for error on what they call something? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
