Everyone lost their marbles
post
People get into the mood of bidding and lose all rationality.
You can buy 100 marbles for like $10 online
You might be better off using steel ball bearings if they aren't going to be visible. From a casual search it looks like steel is cheaper than glass as far as balls are concerned.
Seems a bit heavy for paper.
Hmm, for some reason I read 'paper holder' and my brain turned it into 'bookend', I thought it was for a bookshelf and mentally pictured a vertical contraption, I see now that isn't what you were going for.
The pricing situation seems similar to used furniture on craigslist. Some sellers seem to think furniture can only go up in value from the sticker price, regardless of the number of dogs owned. It's not like they are made out of marble...
This is super random and interesting. I assume you’re not in Japan? People selling hand items here have serious brain damage with the prices they think people will pay.
I bought marbles for cheap at the dollar store last summer. They're good for camping games when you don't have a lot of space.
You can't find cheap marbles?
If things taking up space is a concern, marbles seem like they have an advantage over most things.
In the us one party lost all its marbles and now thats causing the price to go through the roof.
I can see sets of 100 marbles for £6 on Amazon. Though I would recommend buying elsewhere if possible, just wanted to do a quick search.
hey, I found these on Amazon.com for £6. Don't shop on Amazon.com though, they treat their workers like shit, are actively anti-union, and their environmental record is abysmal. I just wanted to say that you can get 100 marbles on Amazon.com for £6, but do not buy the £6 marbles from Amazon.com, go out looking for them yourself on some other website.
What is the point of your comment? Amazon is global and a good way to see an approximate price of something like this, I don't know where OP lives so I can hardly recommend a specific local shop but I can encourage them to look for one instead.
my point is if you discourage people against using amazon, its probably not the best idea to direct them to a cheap product on amazon.
I used to have a marble collection but I've lost track of its position. You could say...
From my perspective, the Gov't are in a better position to answer that, it's so frustrating, few weeks back, I got it for $60.
