  1. Sticky Thread Sticky: Sorting marbles

    Bored in jury duty so I thought I'd start a thread about sorting marbles - I've done it enough! The first thing I do when I have a big lot of marbles to go through is separate them into 4 groups: clearies, Opaques, cat's-eyes (that's the correct spelling as per Peterson & castle's guide) and...

  1. I finished (finally!) my marble racing videos. Check it out!

    Took me forever but I finally finished the series. It's not perfect, apologies for my bad camera work, but it's done and I'm proud of it. :) Watch and enjoy :) https://youtu.be/6ffX4sH7DZg

  2. Some fun pelt rainbos

    I think these are somewhat unusual. The base color on the left pair is odd on both. Left is an off-white tone and the right is light pinkish.

  8. Did Peltier make a completely clear marble?

    Did Peltier make a completely clear marble? While digging at the old factory today I found a few complete marbles and some pieces of marbles, one I found stumped me, it just a plain clear marble. As far as I knew they never made completely clear marbles, could it be valuable?

  11. Peltiers

    Discovered the first two peltiers aren't all that common. Went poking around my mibs and found one that I *think* is almost (well somewhat close or maybe kinda sorta-ish) a twin of one of them. (Hard to tell but the dark ribbon is green).

  14. What's more important to collectors, looks or name/maker recognition?

    I'm wondering what make other collectors want a particular marble, is it the aesthetics or the name and recognition or the marble? For example a rare pelt that's ugly or a marble from a not well know manufacturer that is very pleasing to the eye.

  15. Transitional marbles, defects, errors. Collectors value, monetary value.

    What is the collectors and monetary value for transitional or factory defected marbles. Are these highly sought after? If so are there some defects that are more sought after or valued higher? Are transitional marbles basically a marble with a production flaw?
