Is it that the ones on eBay are from stashes that were kept by employees, and they kept the nice neatly striped ones? Any ideas?, or is it just a fluke that I happen to only find messed up ones? ...

I had not ever thought about it but........but now that you mention it, it does ring true to me also. Maybe it is because most of the CAs that I view are from Marble Alan's listings..............and folks with the best examples send them to him when they sell? Just a thought................. Oh yeah................and that last one (blue & orange) you're showing here is wildly gorgeous! _________________ Lizzy Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Marvelous Mibs Marbles Collectors Zone Forum Index -> Marbles & Glass Chat All times are GMT - 4 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Marvelous Mibs----------------Marbles & Glass ChatMarble Myths & MisconceptionsPros & ConsArchivesThe LoungeThe Test Forum Welcome!----------------Community Guidelines & AnnouncementsContact the Moderators or Administrator The Collectors Corner----------------Collectors Anonymous  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © phpBB Group.
