$20.00 each; shipping included seems to be the going rate. A note that I will try to ID the rocks if you like, but be mindful that with the wrapping and identification I can not get as many into the box. There is usually over 16 pounds, but over 20 without the ID., which is a 'smoking deal'. These are all great rocks for tumbling (once 'hammered') with mostly fist size for cutting. These are not crushed. I've shot some samples for you to check out but it will be a surprise when they arrive, for sure, because I am coming across new ones each time I go through the piles. You can simply send $20 to 'Paypal' at banjocreek@hotmail.com or PM me for instructions. This is box #1. I have many more to follow. You can trust me to pack it for you, or I'll send you photos if you like, of the box-load before it goes out. Let me know if you want them wrapped and Identified too. I'd just as soon 'pack-um up', as all this rock is good material and there is no 'bunk' in the parcel... and it's easier ;D Take Care Thanks! Mike

Beef- Thanks your box is already on it's way. Let me know what you think and if there is something you wanted that I left out or you're not happy, let me know and I'll make it up to you.
Wildshack- No problem at all with a money order. I'll send you the address in a PM and you can send me yours.
Lee- They are going out in the morning mail.
Take Care -Mike

I got one of Banjo's boxes a few weeks ago and was thrilled, and trying to contain myself from ordering another! It was all labelled so neatly until I ripped it up like Christmas Morning! Now that I have the workforce, I can't wait to cut some of these pretties! This is an awesome deal!!

wow - i got 2 boxes and they are awesome. My 9 year old son carried them into the box, attacked with a knife to open and then got a spray bottle of water to see them better. looks like the world diamond prices will be going up as i need lots of blades to cut this all.. thanks!

Banjo: Got another fabulous box, honestly this is a steal, what super matieral! I know you don't know me, but I swear you picked the colors I love and the most beautiful rocks. I took Lee's idea and washed them and placed them in plastic bags with labels, so I will know what they are! There are so many I could cut for days!! And I want to cab everything now!!! Thank you for sharing with us at such a wonderful price!!!!

Thanks for all the positive feed back. We try to do the best when we pick out stuff to send out. We really do have more than we will ever cut up in our lifetime, since we just use a slab or two for jewelry. I have not ID'd some folks boxes of rocks, as they did not request it, and that is one way we can keep the price down, by not having to label them all, but it is an available service we do not mind performing as we were there at one time and could use all the help we could get identifying one rock from another. So not to worry we still have plenty and 'we will keep the price low and the shipping fast'. Thanks!! Mike and Jolyn at www.banjo-creek

Dag nab it. I've resisted this offer as long as I could - thought I had done good - had even gone so far as to breathe a sigh of relief. Turn around and here's the thread right in my face again. *sigh* (that's not a sigh of relief there - that's a sigh of giving in) A girl can only take so much. (pm coming your way!)

Got mine today. Talk about fast shipping! I wasn't sure I had ordered yet and it was here I was already cutting on them this afternoon. Many nice patterns. I'm going to have fun with these. Thanks, Mike! Tony

Hi Banjo,
I got my box today!! Great stuff, My wife just went wild. She was already looking at cab shapes for me to make her some neckless out of. I can not wait till my D/P box with my trim saw attachment for my Genie comes to start chipping away. Thanks again from a newbi!!!

Hi Mike, I received my FRB today and I'm very pleased with the selection's you sent! ;D :help: I have another stupid question! This probably isn't the place to post it, But here goes-- Is there such a thing as Silver Tiger Eye, A friend tell's me there is, I'm not sure. Thanks Again for the FRB. Best Regards, Mike W4MWK

Got my box the other day and had a blast going through it all - there's really nothing better than having a flat rate box sitting on your front porch when you get home! I went with the non-ID option - so I have no idea what any of the stuff is - but it's all pretty! I was hoping I'd be able to ID some of it myself but I'm not that confident in my knowledge yet. Mystery rocks (to me!) or not - this was a great deal! Two thumbs up!
