I've got a nice orthocone plate from that general area so I don't have to worry about that one, but the fern from Chaleur Bay is special! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ammonite pair looks Madagascan to me, so I guess that's where it's from. Would you happen to know where the goinatite and fern come from?

There you go.. getting all technical again. But.. did he "pick them up" or actually PAY for them? Assuming of course, they were actually at a shop in Lyme Regis. Then again, he COULD have just picked them up in Madagascar... or gotten them somewhere else entirely. I mean there IS an auction site where you can buy almost anything and at LEAST 1/1000th of it is genuine. 1 Accomplishing the impossible means only that the boss will add it to your regular duties.

The package that was missing since the 4th, was just delivered! Wow, I honestly thought that one was a goner! I’ll have to open and post pics of it after the new year, as I will be out of country until the first. Happy Christmas, happy new year, and Happy hunting everyone. thanks for everything @Fossil Claw And @caldigger so I just got an email from the postal service. I had put a trace on this package back on December 16th. They finally are starting the investigation and want to inform me that they have not yet found the package :-) please be assured that every effort is being made to find and recover the package. You can't make this stuff up!?!???? And it's one of those no reply email addresses I can't even tell them that the package finally arrived nearly 20 days after they said it was delivered.
