crystal, glass ball?

[patpall22]

Hello,
I got a crystal ball at a flee market in santa cruz today that was just too neat to pass up.
it's 8 inches across or about 200 mm and don't know much more about it than that. I don't know if it's a really clear quartz or glass and the man who sold it to me didn't know much about it either. anyone know how much it could be worth?

thanks

I think it's from China...everything is upside down! LOL OK OK...I'm sorry! Have no idea what it's worth but it's pretty cool!

Too Clear Definately Glass.

A Clear flawless Crystal like that would Be tens of Thousands of
Dollars. odds arn't there.

Had one once also, sold it for $40.00

P.S.

Don't store it in a Window.

Gonna Burn the house down.

at the Very least the Heat Could Destroy it.

thanks jeff,

I was warned about leaving it in the sun. the blanket it was sitting on at the flee market was covered with burn marks .

any air bubbles in it if yes then it most likely would be glass i think crystal might have some kind of inclussions but not traped air bubbles at least i think thats right
