It is interesting to note that the sell through on these auctions isn’t near as good as it is on their Art and Jewelry Auctions.<\/span>

<\/span>I wonder if that is due to the information about the goods in these auctions not getting to the right people or a down turn in the number of people following the fossils field?<\/span>

<\/span>Personally I choose to believe the former as I have noticed a keen interest in collecting and Jewelry made with Fossils of all kinds!<\/span>

<\/span>
<\/span>…with our little Wholly Mammoth friend above selling so briskly – I have to believe that a few museums are seeing funding.<\/span>

<\/span>There does seem to be a large following from the Interior Design field and items that are beautifully presented are definite winners! …as this “Coffret of Exotic Crabs” can testify!<\/span><\/p>\n
