Oh Sands, how totally disappointing that is. Such a gorgeous piece to be all fractured inside like that. I'm really sorry, you were so excited about it.

ok I'm back to smilin haha i got an email from the rockman69 and he said he would give me store credit plus part of the shipping back i just have to send back the rock---( awww geeez i guess ill just have to buy more rock) hahaha
now thats how a buy or trade should be handled that didn't turn out for the best on both sides -- hey i know he couldn't see inside the rock -- and i told him its no use to me for cabbin so he made me an offer and yes i will lose acouple bucks no biggie i feel better and ill get most of my money back i spent and would not think twice about buyin from him again because he's a STAND UP SELLER--- hey he could have told me to go jump in the lake but he didn't ----- and id be out 215.00

hmmm, i was going to suggest Opticon for it, but i guess if he'll take it back (all sawed up nice, nice) and you are happy with the deal, cool beans.
that was one expensive rock!

HEY, SANDS! When you get your money back, maybe you can get some Prudent Man Agate to replace it - he also sells rough. www.agateslabs.com/agate_rough.htmSorry. I really like this stuff... S

Hey, what great news that Brian would take back the rock. I have purchased several items from Brian. I feel even better that he treated you right. As you said, what great service! Cal

yea i have bought from him a few times and have been real happy with his rock except for one time and it wasn't a big enough deal to mention so i didn't -- but i have gotten some real nice larger chunks from him --and now that i see he wont just say beat it if something is wrong ill prob be buyin alot more from him in the future i was alittle nervous about buyin that piece for that price but i couldn't resist it haha and i fig if it was good i could pay for it with like 8 or 10 cabs and still have the rest for more ---i really wish it was solid cause the inside has some beautiful color i would have had plenty left when i sold enough cabs to cover it
