Nest eggs have to be sold at some point or die holding out. Black Opal Direct

This video from Justin is a tribute to his father as much as cutting a fine king stone. I imagine most miners don't sell the best opals they find unless they have to to go keep finding opals for the pot of gold under the rainbow. Times have made finding specimens less likely as fields get dug out. Where will the next "pocket" appear? When will the heirlooms go on the block? What estate sale has that persy jar in the knick knacks?
