JorisVV Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Looking to purchase a new Megalodon tooth that is not from the United states. Came across this one. Is this worth it or should I skip it Edit 1: The big and actual only thing i am kind of skeptical about is the right part of the Bourlette. I've purchased and traded with this person for a longer time now and he is trustworthy Edited May 10, 2021 by JorisVV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digit Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I'm not seeing any obvious red flags--and sometimes they are quite obvious. What is the locality information on this tooth? Definitely not a phosphatically black one from Florida or the Carolinas. Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt like home. It still does" -Mike (Pagurus) “The best deal I ever got was getting accepted as a member on The Fossil Forum. Not only got an invaluable pool of knowledge, but gained a loving family as well.” -Doren (caldigger) "it really is nice, to visit the oasis that is TFF" -Tim (fossildude19) "Life's Good! -Adam (Tidgy's Dad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JorisVV Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 It is! It looks a bit more natural looking than some over exxagurated ones you see for high prices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
