All shells have a picture that shows the shell you buy.

Shells for sale are categorized into two:

1. Exceptional Shells: are shells that stand out by criteria such as quality, rarity, size, beauty etc.
2. Selected Shells: these are good to very good representatives of the species. In general, they have been sorted out of many specimens, mainly on their quality.

You can judge quality from the picture. Since fine digital images are available we give less attention to this quality determination, unless it concerns "dead" shells.

Bidding Table

A bid you placed cannot be withdrawn and is a firm contract to buy the shell after the auction.
