Question about retail values.

Recommended Posts

Hey guys. This is a pretty random selection of the Carboniferous fossils that my kids and I have collected. I have a lot at about this quality, and some better ones but we'd rather not sell them if we can help it. I hadn't planned on selling any of them, but life throws you curve balls and here we are.  Whoever responds to this, thank you so much.

Welcome to the Forum.  :) 

 

Unfortunately,  the Fossil Forum does not provide appraisals or values to fossils. 

From the Forum Rules and Community Standards: (which you agree to when you sign up ) ;) 

"Please understand that The Fossil Forum cannot appraise the commercial value of a fossil; this is beyond what can be done through pictures on the internet, so please don't ask."

 

The best you can probably do is to see what auction and commercial sites are getting for similar items. 

 

Also, mentions of sales outside of the Member to Member Sales Forum is forbidden. 

The Member to Member Sales section is a delayed permission. It is a privilege earned by submitting a number of substantive posts.

Regards,

  • Fossildude19 changed the title to Question about retail values.

Wow. It's hard to explain how devastating this is. I've had a PTSD breakdown, and it took a heroic effort to make this post. We were all hopeful to hear the responses, and I'm not in a position right now to scroll through sites and try to figure this out. I wasn't looking for a "appraisal", just whether they're closer to 5 or 50. :-(

I'm sorry to hear this.  :( 

Maybe someone will PM you with some advice. 

Unfortunately, we have rules, and we have to have everyone follow them, despite circumstances.

Best of luck to you .

Kind regards,

Dont know if this will help you or not, but I use to be a fossil dealer and trying to sell 'parital' leaf imprints do not go for much moneys.  I was offered 4 big boxes of this kind of material years ago and turned them down.  Just wasnt worth the time or effort to sell them.  Sorry.
