Please visit our new eBay "My World" page to learn more about us and to be able to let us know what kind of marbles you would like to see listed here on eBay, or how to contact us with marble questions.

WE ARE NOT A BUSINESS JUST MARBLE ENTHUSIASTS SO WE CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY EXTRA FEES SO PLEASE PAY BY CHECK OR MONEY ORDER. IF YOU MUST PAY ELECTRONICALLY YOU CAN PAY FOR ANYTHING TO ANYBODY WITH ONLINE BANKING "BILLPAY" THROUGH YOUR OWN BANK SAFELY AND FOR FREE BOTH TO YOU AND US.

THE MARBLES WE ARE NOW LISTING ARE FROM A WONDERFUL OLD COLLECTION WE JUST OBTAINED WITH MANY ORIGINALLY COLLECTED AS FAR BACK AS THE 1940s. THEY ARE IN ABSOLUTELY LIKE NEW CONDITION. YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO BUY AKRO AGATE MARBLES THAT MAY HAVE BEEN IN GLASS CASES SINCE BEFORE THEY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. BIDDING ON THESE EXAMPLES WILL DETERMINE WHAT WE DO WITH THE REST OF THE COLLECTION.

MARBLES ARE MEASURED BY A CALIPER IN THE FINAL PICTURE SO YOU CAN SEE IT FOR YOURSELF.

MAYBE THE BEST POPEYE I HAVE EVER HAD. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME YELLOW ON WHITE AUGER UP THROUGH THE MIDDLE. BRILLIANT RED AND AN ORANGE HYBRID STRIPE BY THE RETINA SEARING YELLOW. NOT A BLEMISH, DING, OR SCRATCH ON THIS BREATH-TAKING POPEYE.

We are being forced to accept Paypal payments but would prefer any other method. We do not sell super exspensive items and their fees really hurt us. We gladly accept personal checks, money orders, or cashiers checks. This is not a business for us but a much loved hobby. Please give us a chance. Most banks these days offer totally FREE Online Banking "BillPay" which you can sign up for on your computer and they will pay any amount you need paid to anybody, anywhere without you ever having to write a check or mail anything. It is a absolutely safe way to pay anything. If you do not have it, try it, you will love us for telling you about it.

We ship USPS only because it is the only choice we have in our rural area. We require insurance but only charge $1.50 which is less than it costs. Because of the dishonest people out there we have no choice but to require insurance. Once again the many pay for the deeds of the few. We base our normal charge of $1.50 on the average of what it costs us to ship a marble. Some are a little less and many are much more but we only charge $1.50 for postage in the continental U.S. We are based in a rural area and actually have to go by car to the post office each time we ship so we make nothing on shipping. We do ship as quickly as humanly possible (see our feedback).

We want you to be happy with your purchase. Any issue can be worked out if we communicate like ladies and gentlemen. We are in the marble hobby for the long haul and CONTINUE to get many wonderful marbles. It is good for us and you to work things out if there is a problem. Give us that chance, Please!

We are not a business. We are just dedicated marble enthusiasts. We have a bi-yearly marble newsletter we mail out. If you wish to recieve it send us your correct mailing address. If you buy from us we want you to enjoy it. Let us know of any problem. If you have rare and wonderful marbles or a whole collection you want to sell please look us up. We do not grade marbles. We provide several quality photos and tell you about any thing we see wrong with the marble. If you "supersize" (just click your mouse) under our photos you will be able to see the surface better than we can and trust your own eyes and not my eyes or my opinion. We will even send you more photos if you want them. The cameras they make now are so much better than those they made just a few years ago that it seems silly for me to try and tell you what you should think of a marble. We are not condemning anyone else here it is just that technology is much better than when eBay started. A 9.2 may mean something different to you than it does to us so judge for yourself. If you are not happy with a marble we can always talk about it.

If you have rare and wonderful marbles to show, sell, or ask qustions about please contact us at killermarbles@cfl.rr.com. You can also mail us at: PO Box 1258 Lake Panasoffkee, Fl 33538
