Well, if you have mercury glass and it is failing, maybe you can bring it to
the place he bought it. That shouldn't happen so fast. I know someone who's
had a mercury glass orb for about 30 years and it is still as shiney as the day
they got it.

I don't believe they make mercury glass any more. I think that's what
they used
to make the original gazing balls.

I buy the inexpensive ones. They last as long as the more expensive.

My Husband just bought me two gazing balls for my birthday....I had some
before, but they were the cheap ones from Walmart (nothing against WM, I
shop there all the time)....the ones he bought me, cost 2 1//2 times more
than the ones I bought. The problem I had with the ones I had before,
was,
the gazing stuff wore off eventually. Has anyone bought the more
expensive
ones and not had this problem?
