Attention Sea Shell Collectors
350 piece Indo-Pacific sea shell collection for sale in Olympia Washington.
Huge variety of shells collected in Okinawa Japan, Philippine Islands, Thailand, Guam and other Pacific locations between 1981 and 1988. Many are in clear plastic display boxes.
I am offering this collection to as many professional collectors as I can find in the next few months as well as Ebay and Craigslist. While I expect to get a fair price, I am ready to make someone a deal, To a collector who will be fair and honest with me I will make a fantastic deal. I would prefer to sell the collection as a whole, however, if you would like to purchase a particular section I will entertain offers. Take a look using the link above, research their current value and make me a reasonable offer and we'll proceed from there. I will pack and ship them and insure the package for the full purchase value. On the right offer, I may include shipping and handling in the price.
If you are seriously interested, I will take a reasonable number of close ups of the shells you wish to see in detail and email those to you.
