Looking for Hardouinia sea biscuits

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm seeing that a lot of these sea biscuits are found on the beaches of North Carolina due to dredging. I tried on Facebook to trade or buy some, but that did'nt work out. Had a seller on online auction site but he wouldnt send them to Europe.

 

Is there anyone interested in selling or trading some with me?

 

I would have mix of European echinoids for trade, for instance.

 

Greetings Walter

There are 3 in the Rolling Auction among other fossils and the current bid is only $10.00.

Hi,

 

I've seen it. But the rest of the auction is not really of my interest. 

 

AndI know there are a lot of these echinoids found at the moment. The shipping costs are high. So if it is possible I would like get more then 3 out of one trade or buy.

 

Thanks fot pointig it out though!

Hi Walter, I have some from my annual trip to Holden Beach family vacation. I normally give them away to any interested person especially if they are fossil collectors.  Let me see how many I have left down in the Man Cave.  We are going to Holden Beach in a few months for the summer vacation and I'll most likely find and bring home a gallon bag. 

 

In the meantime....does the shipping cost sound reasonable?

 

How much is shipping from US to Netherlands?

UPDATE:  I looked around and am not seeing the bag of sea biscuits. Might be in the garage still from when I recovered them from the front yard rock/cactus garden to bag them to carry with me to the Green River Formation pay-to-dig fossil quarries and gift them to the employees who assisted me. I'm sure I gave the bulk of them away those two trips but feel like there's more left over. 

 

There are a few in my display case. Maybe I could part with a couple of these if I don't find the others.
