We are pleased to offer this consignment! In over 25 years of collecting, I have never seen one of these boxes in person. I was thrilled! This is extremely rare in Akro collecting. Yes it has tape, yes it has wear, but it has all the bells and whistles. the bag, all the original marbles. Moss swirls and the lemonade and limeades. Just outstanding. please look carefully. As said, it has wear . the marbles are mostly all mint. I saw a couple of the big limeades that look like they have a little wear, nothing serious though. Now, check those marbles! they are time period correct. not patches, they are swirls and corks. I did not re-arrange the one side for the marbles to be in order. this is how it came and I want to handle it as little as possible. the bag is stiff, but still able to move without damage. a little leather dressing would probably do it wonders. Try and add up what each marble would be alone, and then the bag and then the rare box. this is something that only comes around once folks! it will have to have insurance . the shipping on this reflects what I think will be close to shipping with ins. added. if it is more, I will pay the difference. (if lower then you will be invoiced less)the consignor has GENEROUSLY offered this with no reserve. wow! Please note shipping costs usually include insurance. if it closes for less, of course your shipping will be less too! Please note... due to recent issues with our wonderful postal system, marbles will be shipped priority if they close for more than 50.00. insurance and WILL be added. If less than 50. can send first class, for 2.00. I want you to get your marbles quickly and safely! I cannot run a tab for more than 3 days. Please wait for invoicing , so insurance can be added please. International bidders, priority mail or however tracking or insurance can be added. this typically costs about 30.00 to 40.00 for shipping. ebay sets the shipping available for my seller protection. PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR PICTURES I can only run a 'tab' for 3 days. thanks :-) The important stuff.... I can offer other methods of payments . just email me! I do accept returns, however, item must be returned in unopened original envelope. My grading is listed below the pictures on this page, and on my "me" page. please read . You are bidding on one marble. You are looking at 1 marble from different views. (Please excuse any light reflections or finger prints!) Don't forget to check out our 'Me" page for more info!! Please email w/questions. PAYPAL payment within 3 days. I offer other payment choices if paypal isn't your ideal. I ship TWICE a week . Let me know if you would like insurance added! Please wait for invoice for multiple items so I can save you $$ on shipping! Thanks for looking! 'ZABOO' Grading.. Grading is subject to everyone's opinion. And yes, everybody has one. However, if you are bidding on my marbles, you are agreeing to my opinion on grading. First... I do not grade with a 30X loupe. These were made as toys , not tiffany art glass. Many marbles will have factory defects and flaws, some companies more than others simply because of the glass or process used in manufacture. Grading by numbers. I personally hate the numbers game, but many rely on it for grading info. 10. Not sure there is a perfect 10 marble. As close as I would get to this is 'dead mint'. Meaning it is as perfect as the day it was made. 9.8 looks free of any pocket wear, or play damage, but could still have an as-made little glass flaw, or melted bubble pops, slight cold roll etc. 9.6 to 9.7. Looks fantastic, wet surface, but could have a minute pin prick, or a pin tip sparkle or two (as-made or not). or a very slight roller mark, etc. 9.2 to 9.5 Again, looks great in hand, but could have a tiny flea or two, a little pocket wear, maybe a really tiny subsurface crescent or two., as-made roller scuff etc. General speaking a... read more
