If you don't like the specimen, return it in perfect condition in the original packing and I will return your payment. Shipping is by UPS unless you request otherwise. When you request a mineral I will let you know the shipping cost. Specimens are wrapped in thin plastic, then cotton, then newspaper secured with rubber bands.
Shredded paper is used for padding in the shipping box.
With extremely heavy or extremely fragile specimens, double boxing may be used. This site is the beginning of our effort to create an online rock shop. We live in Edina, Minnesota.
