All of our product specimens are in their natural organic state and have not been cleaned with any cleaning chemicals or acids.  All products have not been polished or oiled in any way.  All products may contain beach sand and may have a residual organic odor.  Products left in their natural state intentionally allowing buyer to treat, clean, oil, polish or sanitize to their own desires.  You can bring out the natural beauty by applying a thin coating of mineral oil which will give the specimen a shine or glossy finish for a wet appearance which will last for quite a while but will eventually need to be reapplied to maintain the vibrant sheen or for a more permanent option you can coat with polyurethane.

If purchasing multiple items
, shipping costs can/will be combined IF you notify me of multiple items being purchased PRIOR to actually paying for your purchases.  An invoice will be sent in order to pay with the correct payment amount to include the combined shipping costs.  Refunds can/will not be given for shipping fees if payment has already been made and processed by eBay/PayPal.
If you're an international buyer
and are interested in multiple items, please message me first with your information concerning items of interest and/or offers.  I ship internationally thru the Global Shipping Program.  Once you "purchase" or "agree to purchase" on eBay, the Global Shipping Program will not allow me to combine shipping at that point; therefore, please message me with your items of interest and/or offers so then I can create a listing of those items all together with their combined total so then you can pay just one combined shipping fee.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST!
