SPECIMEN: Beryl (var. Heliodore), Quartzite SOURCE:Middlesex County, Connecticutt WEIGHT: 1 lb. 11 oz. APPROX. SIZE: 5 X 3 1/2 X 2 1/4 in.
Here's a gorgeous monster of a golden opaque Beryl crystal in Quartzite - check out the photos! The crystal is over 4 in. long, and is both curved and tapered - one end is about 1 1/8 in. across, while the other is well over 2 in. Both ends of the crystal are broken off, and the crystal shows six distinct sides at both ends; one of the sides shows an unusual three-plane longitudinal growth pattern. I've never seen another specimen quite like this one....
Here's your chance to bring a very unique piece into your collection. Thank you for viewing this listing! BTW, I will be continually adding new specimens to my eBay store and my website (check eBay's 'me' description for the address), and putting others up for auction; please check them out when you have a chance.
SPECIAL FREE SHIPPING OFFER: Anyone purchasing two or more items via the "buy-it-now" option or from my website will receive free USPS Priority Mail shipping and insurance (within the USA only) for those items and any others won which can be reasonably combined with them (larger items added to free "buy-it-now" shipments may require a small additional charge). International buyers of two or more "buy-it-now" or website specimens will have the international handling fee waived, and receive a substantial discount on the actual cost of shipping.
The fine print:
Paypal payments are now the only form of payment eBay accepts. All shipments within the USA will use USPS Priority Mail. The cost of shipping this specimen is dependent on your zip code, and single specimen shipments can be accurately determined by using eBay's shipping calculator (my zip code is 19087). eBay overestimates the cost of shipping multiple specimens, but I will send you an accurate shipping quote for multiple specimens upon request - I do not add any handling charges within the USA. International shipments can be sent surface, air, or Priority Mail International (standard) at the buyer's option; in addition to the actual shipping cost, a $5.00 international handling fee per shipment will be charged, regardless of the number of specimens included. For many domestic and international multiple specimen shipments, the Priority Mail flatrate box is by far the most attractive option. I will hold specimens to consolidate shipments (and save on shipping costs); however, the purchase price of all items held for more than two weeks should be paid when the request to hold the specimens is made.
All items are sold "as is" and all sales are final, so please email me with any questions you have on this item (tigerowner@aol.com). If any item doesn't meet your expectations, it may be returned within 14 days for a refund of the purchase price only; this means you will have paid for the shipping (both ways). Also, since all items bought and paid for are generally shipped within one business day, if you would like me to hold shipping for additional purchases (or any other reason), please let me know via email before making payment.
