NOVICE COLLECTORS

Congratulations on your choice of a fascinating and exciting hobby. Shell collecting can take you to all corners of the globe and you now have the chance to meet some great people from all walks of life who also love these "gems from the sea."

I have lower priced specimens available in most families for the new collector. Please enquire if you are looking for a particular specimen but dont want to pay full price for a perfect shell.
