About damn time! I'm sorry it took so long. Was only supposed to be 2-3 days not 2-3 weeks (it feels like). It probably feels even longer for you! Saw some open and let's see the insides

Just so you know, boxes 5 and 6 have more than whats pictured! I filled up the boxes as much as I could and then weighed. When I shifted all the rocks around I was adding more to the boxes that I noticed would fit. They also have the sugar Quartz that jamesp has been raving over and tumbling as a bonus. I believe some are even slab sized in there.

first cut. This is the one rock I spotted in your listing that sold the box. Sorry for all the red nasty oil but I just cut 10 pounds of Mookaite and Noreena jasper is coming soon so I dont want to clean out till after that stuff. Chuck

Here it is- Good thing I taped it well. It got beat to hell and back. I only use brand new boxes and that thing looks like it sat in some water for a while. Dang What's that caution sticker say?

I received a box from Montana once that was blown open! They delivered it in a Postal container to my door...All the agates were exposed to the world.. I asked her if she had a few minutes-I called the buyer up and asked him how many pounds was shipped.. I weighed them out and it was right on the nose...She was relived! LOL..So was I!!!! I also taped the heck out of my boxes too,I just don't trust the postal service...My youngest son use to work for UPS and loaded trks at night,he said,he couldn't believe how rough the workers and equipment was to the packages!!! It's all about time to the companies!! GO GO GO!!! Get it done!!!

I would have thought this box would've been gone. I know for fact this box has the most "free rocks" than any other box. Being it only has like 8 or 9 rocks to the 21.5lbs that it is. I filled the open gaps up with nice red and yellow sugar Quartz.

How much do you sell each box for? They look amazing btw $2/lb. The last box is 21.5lbs of just agates(weighs more all together) captbob, I deleted the pics and prices of the boxes that had already been sold. The last box of rocks is still up. No gimmicks, hijinx, or anything of a scandalous nature here. I uploaded from my phone which the picture size is perfectly fine, but when viewed on the computer they were really huge' and seemed to take up way too much space on the front page. Box 6 is still up with pics(of a few that's in there), weight, and price. Next time I hold a sale I will try and use that program jamesp used that one time showing his tumbles. Jim, what was the program called again for photos? I couldn't remember which thread it was in when I went looking.

I'm curious, trying to get an idea of what to price my Montana's. I've got different grades and youd price accordingly correct? I've got a lot I can get rid of so I really wanna do this right
