Enjoy EV-SSL fully secure safe transactions using Paypal Merchant Services for all credit cards etc, a name in merchant processing many of you trust. We offer the very best and most accurate collection data whenever possible. There are no doctored, fake or altered shells or fossils on our sites! Our family has over 50 years of field collecting experience worldwide! Expect top notch specimens from us, as we don't sell anything we wouldn't be proud to have in our own collection!

Please be patient with the shipping process, as Covid 19 has slowed Postal Pick-ups and deliveries down to a crawl in the United States and many other countries.Packages are picked up at our home office,when we schedule pickups regardless of Covic-19. Package Pick-Up times have varied  for our business. Sometimes pick-up times have changed with a shortage of USPS staffing. Sorry no registered mail or services that require going to the post office until the Coronavirus or Covic-19 is all clear! First Class Mail, Priority Mail, Media Mail and Express Mail are the only four shipping options we are using for both U.S.A. customers and our overseas friends during Covic-19. Again, we are not responsible for longer than normal Postal delivery times. Once a package leaves here with the USPS, customs clearance and delivery may be affected in your country or here in the states due to the pandemic.

We carry mostly museum quality & investment grade specimen shells, fossil shells,coral fossils & other fossil invertebrates!!! Better yet, you don't have to abandon your shopping cart because of postal costs shown with your order summary. If it looks like postage is too much!! Our goal is to charge the exact amount of postage and handling needed for each order! Our shopping cart is connected directly to the USPS web server getting constant updates of postal fees. If you paid too much postage and handling, we will refund you back the difference to the credit card that you used to originally pay for the order. When the exact postage is calculated and the package is wrapped and ready to ship we will notify you if you have any money being returned for postal over payment! We aren't in business to make money on shipping and handling! We combine shipping to save on postage! Our shopping cart charges one postal charge rather than several on various auction sites. We believe in Buy it now, as most shell auctions are only for the richest collectors who can afford to bid everybody else up too high.  Current pricing in the specimen shell market needs to be regulated by a new price guide, as prices for even common seashells are much too high! We would be happy to join fellow shell dealers in determining fair pricing.
