I haven't lost my marbles...but I could use some information on some :P

My grandpa was going to put these in a yard sale last week and luckily I stopped him in time.

..there are sure to be the odd forum or two on the subject,better than asking on SimV...here's one for starters...http://marbleconnection.invisionzone.com/index.php?

...(together with everything else)... ::)...!

Paul.... ;D...!

I could do with a "Marble" replacement of the Cranium variety, though... I've lost most of them now...::)...!

Also look through e-Bay, you might be able to price them if someone is selling.

Yeah, like a lot of other stuff that I threw away, now I find out that something as seemingly simple as marbles might actually be worth something.  Talk about losing your marbles.  Live & learn the hard way.
