I have 6 or 8 LFRB boxes of thundereggs found this year. A few new locations. Ed Pieters sent them to me while he was here in June. Havent cut any. Dont have any equipment right now to cut them. Need the money now worse that the eggs. Quite a few different locations. 160-180 pounds worth.
Ed Pieters only makes one trip a year. He is from Amsterdam. I got them while he was here on his digs.
Let me know if your interested and I will get some pics this week sometime.

will do fossilman. Ed Pieters is very passionate about them t eggs. That is one reason I went with him. He is good guy. He has been posting pics of eggs he found this last June on facebook. Same dig time as the eggs he sent my way.

well just got in. Glad there is interest in the t eggs. To be clear you most likely wont be able to tell if there is color in them by looking at the photos. They are fresh from the ground and havent been cleaned or anything. Still got that earthy smell. Ed Pieters mentioned to see color I would have to rinse them off but I left them as is. Im shure most of you already know with t eggs, you really dont know what you got until you cut them, even if there isnt any color showing they could be good inside.

No need to wash them off I have hundreds of them and can't tell a thing by looking at the outside unless you have A broke or chipped one and you still can't really tell till you slice them open.

well I got the crates of t eggs out. Should have pics tomorrow. Looking at them closer I do see color in the random ones I picked up. Most likely will be hard to tell in photos though until you get them in hand.
To be honest, when I got them I pretty much just put them in crates and didnt really look at them all that much.
Ed Pieters is passionate about them t eggs. Im shure he sent me some good ones.

I am interested too but it seems that the question of price keeps getting avoided. Must be waiting to see what demand before setting price. Therefore I pass.

finally, here are pics of the t eggs I have available. If you like them let me know.  s802.photobucket.com/user/bhiatt/library/t%20eggs?sort=3&page=1locations Killer Green Eddy Bed Mill Creek TNT Whistler Springs Wild Iris Ochoo Bed White Fir MBB-Mud Ball Bed NYO1 Bed Jeremy Upper Bed I think there is at least 150 + lbs here or so. I had Ed Pieters put together these boxes of various locations he hunted at while he was here in the USA. Some of these he called his 'secret' beds. I paid $80 per large flat rate. That included shipping. Each box had 25lbs and up in them. I bought 6 LFRB. Without shipping it came out to $2.50/pound. Im really not all that familiar with t egg prices but I did do a little research today and looks like the oregon t egg dealers Ive seen, charge in the same range. Let me know what you guys think. |

In a perfect world Id like to sell them all as they came LFRB. One LFRB is accounted for. 5 left.
I dont have a scale that goes below 5 pounds, so order would have to be MFRB to be accurate. Not too many will fit in SFRB and that would be below what my scale accurately weighs.
2.50/pound is what I estimated I paid for them. Would like to get that.
