Very nice, you made out on that imo. Rockshops up here in PA would do $5-$20 / ea. on those based on size and clarity. Not many rockhounds here in the land of infinite siltstone. Or as I call it s**tstone. ;-)

I noticed most of them have prices listed on the bottom from $12-$34 each with...I think it was 31 specimens...I caught the guy in the last 5 minutes of the show and he said he would swing a deal because he needed money to buy stock in Tuscon. Was good timing!

I am actually selling these at a little trading post/fleamarket booth here in Atlanta. I got a killer deal on some galena, barite, and a few other things aas well. Trying to focus on things for non-mineral collectors/interior decorators..shiny, gemmy, colorful, etc.

I see, very wise to keep the market as broad as possible. But as a rockhound AND a snazzy decorator, I was wondering if you did any thru-the-mail sales or online. Seems like you got some great shtuff. Especially that ammy and phantoms you been showin off. I buy cut stones also.

Rodney told me just the acrylic stands cost .50 cents each so that means $15 worth in stands. Niot a bad deal..LOL Just selling these at the booth for now..if they don't sell I will offload some to you, Ryan
