Prices: The prices relate directly to the expense of acquiring the specimens and the work (cleaning, testing, etc.) done on them.  All prices include the current 7% VAT on minerals, though this does not apply to customers outside the European Union!

Discounts: I give a discount with large orders only.

Payment: I accept cheques and Master and Visa cards:  With card payments please send both the card number and its expiry date.  Please do not send cash to me by post!

Refunds: I describe the material as accurately as possible, to minimise any possible discrepancy felt on receipt. However, if you are not satisfied with a specimen, please send it back promptly in its original condition, well packed.

Postage:  postage charges are reduced for orders over 200 Euros, and are nil for orders above 400 Euros.
