"CITRON - GREENISH YELLOW"? I don't see it.
"I have put a Common Agua Jar with the Jar that is for Sell to show the differents." Looks like after and before to me.

I bought a crown jar once like that by accident but they were only asking 8 bucks, learned about it after that, did not get burned again until my olive green bromo, but I had just asked what color cobalt turned when nuked but nobody seemed to know. After I traced the source of the olive bromo and found out for certain it was nuked I spread the word here and to the Baltimore club folks. The seller refunded me a huge portion of my bid with a sincere apology and I happily have it as an example of NUKED cobalt. Same idiot would probably nuke a cobalt star ink!

I saw that one too and scratched my head. Citron is definately NOT the color of the item pictured. I'd call it nuked gasoline brown.

Its hard to blame anyone getting duped by the Bromos since they do come in various shades but that jar is so obviously hiddeously ruined.

Even if you got burned and learned a lesson, this poor guy/gal is way out of range. The light blue and cobalt are $3 total so the other two are are $100+ each (or divide as wanted). Count yourself as well off.
While there are reports on fresh dug teal, I did meet a nuker at a show that had a sort of teal that he admitted he nuked. Both I guess exist but the shades are most likely different.

To me the two on the left looked nuked, I don't think they are those colors naturally.


Oh yes...I've dug prussian blue/ teal variants so I know they exist...But the two you mentioned Steve, look vr. unnatural....Also Steve...I was waiting for you to notice and remark on a post I did a couple weeks ago..>Since you're the Bromo variant guy,...What's the story with this one?[:D]

Celery Fo-Mo bromo? or something to that effect...Thanks if you have any info.
