    This fairly new bar was a dealer buyback and I purchased it at close to spot. I think it's the damage or maybe the foam wrapping or box that I put it in that caused it to start toning:

    Don't be fooled by inferior 30g products...this is the real deal. 100 Ewok dollars!

    Camo toning! I just got this bar from another member. The bar looks fairly new so I guess the toning comes from the original plastic it was covered in rather than age (not sure). It's such a cool pattern though!

    SP, is that crystallization patterns - different toning on different crystals? :cool:

    I have absolutely no idea but I think it's just a weird effect from the original plastic it was wrapped in. I love the pattern though :)
