STR: Yeah, I think he made up this lot special for the auction because it's some of the nicest material of that sort I've ever seen....Mel

Why don't you keep one just as is and cut the rest!!! I want to see it tumbled and cabbed!

Beautiful colors , fancy jasper is a great material. I think this one is cabbing grade.

I have to agree. this looks like cabbing material and you should go for it. Maybe not cutting all of it up but just a few so you can have the benefit of cabbing and keeping some. I have got to admit, I am looking forward to seeing what you do with it! Fran

That is sweet Mel.
I never ordered because pics on the site looked nice, but only slightly above average for the price. I never saw pics like that.
Was this an ebay auction?

I can see why you don't want to cut it or break it up but I also picture some incredable cabs coming from those rocks. That last one to the right with the orange banding is awesome.

Daniel: I was surprised at just how nice this lot is too. It was a E-bay auction and I think maybe he sorted some out special for the offering as it's about the best I've ever seen.....Mel

I just looked at the site. THe prices are a buck or so lower than last tiem I check in the late summer.
Your stuff is closest to the Fancy Bloodstone Jasper category, which is only $3/lb. I've got to say that is reasonable. I may order some - even though I don't need any!
