Are you FRIGGIN serious? ? Dang Beef....you hit the payload again. I seriusly need to head down, cut some nodules with you, and drive around looking for sales. At least you'd have someone to race you for the stuff. Awesome finds. Congrats and I'm Thrilled for you. Your one heck of a great guy! Steve

Man Brian, those are some really wonderful stones and of the individuals the most expensive seems to be $1.00. What a steal!! You are one awesome guy who deserves a steal. I am still loving the rocks you sent me. I sit down and try to decide what to tumble next.

Brian, you should be ashamed of yourself, stealing from them people like that!... Oh who am I kidding?!? I'd have grabbed all they had and tried to get a package deal on the lot lol!
Sweet score!

Thanks all!
I know I got lucky on this one. It was the second I had been to in Sun City that was organized by some small company (I guess). I arrived early but still had to stand in line outside the door as they only let so many people in at once. People were hitting the bathrooms and kitchens and standing in line to 'check out' with partial boxes of Cascade, lotion, air fresheners and stuff. It's kind of a strange environment to be in.. but man when they price the good stuff as 'just rocks' who am I to argue? ;D

I think you should be forced to sell every piece at $1 more than you paid for it to all who post on this thread... well, wait, to me.....

I thought I heard some sonic booms Thursday, but on after thought it was those quarters snapping out your pocket! When you hit yard, and estate sales you do have the luck of the Irish to you. Just you keep doing this, the rest of us even if a wee bit jealous do enjoy seeing you finds, Woody

Wow Brian, Great score...seems like you and Tony(catmandewe) are 1, 2 on the deal finders...maybe you guys should try to start a show on how to find deals called "RockPickers" and put it on cable...I know we would all watch it!!! Larry

Are those the prices marked on there? If they are you got an incredible deal. You probably paid for that whole lot what the piece of rhodochrosite would have cost me. That rutiliated quartz is great.
