    One interesting thing about this particular VIGMA set is the poor finish. It is interesting because in general, VIGMA balls maintained a good gloss with little effort over much playing time. This set, uniquely, seems to dull the finish quickly and in some cases irreversibly. Not sure if it...

    I am super excited to now be the curator of this Holy Grail set of Arcos prototypes, new in the box! The next owner will be designated in my will! I've been hoping for this set to come my way for years!
