Carls Rocks and Minerals

Selling Gorgeous Large rare Rocks and Display Minerals. Most of what I sell is pretty easy to find in smaller pieces- it's the QUALITY & SIZE of these popular Collector pieces that makes them so rare! ALL Pictures are the Actual Rocks & Minerals FOR SALE.

  Welcome to Carls LARGE Rocks and Minerals

I spend a Lot of late-nights going through the Online websites of rocks & minerals (most of which only have small to medium-sized pieces); and I know that almost all of the rocks and minerals on my site would cost you 2 or 3 times what I’m charging if you could find them somewhere else.

Here is the answer to a customer who asked me why I have so many pieces of the same type on the website: “I collected for over 25 yrs. I bought a lot of the same type of pieces, because they were fantastically beautiful. Mostly Large fluorites, quartzes, calcites, jaspers, etc. IF I had tried to branch out into the ebay-type pieces, I would have had to buy a lot of smaller pieces, because most of them didn't come in Large sizes (and still don't). I was always a "Large-Cabinet" collector, and would stick with collecting one type for a month or so and then do the same with another type.

I photo almost everything at/on my front porch. Please don’t think these Large, Gorgeous rocks/minerals are just run-of-the-mill ordinary pieces!! They’re NOT. Once they’re gone - they’re Gone. There were times when I took them for granted thinking they’d always be available, But then I’d stop and realize each piece is something irreplacable of itself…

It is up to the Buyer to do their own research before they buy any of my rocks & minerals. I have NO way of knowing if any of these rocks/minerals have been altered or enhanced; as I was never into the geology of the rocks/minerals. I would’ve never knowingly collected any bogus rocks & minerals!!

Also, If you buy a piece from me, and then see what looks like it still on the website; it’s NOT the piece you bought; it’s a DIFFERENT piece I just Listed to replace the one you just bought.  You will always get the Exact same piece you bought off the website!! 

I try not to leave "SOLD OUT" pieces on the website very long, so if I have some MORE of the same type mineral that you bought, I will List it quickly!

I think my prices are very good, and priced much lower for the Quality & Size, than other websites! Normally SALES don’t work well on my website. Many people ask me to have higher % SALES and WHY can’t I just take off 15 or 20%. The answer is because I LIST my Large, Rare rocks/minerals at my bottomline prices plus you get FREE Shipping which is Significant now-a-days! IF I raise my prices and do away with FREE Shipping - then I could run a bigger SALE (but nobody’s going to want THAT!)

Please double-check your Shipping Address when placing your Order.

ALL Rocks/Minerals are sold AS IS.

7-Day Return privilege Only if the mineral is the wrong one sent by mistake, or damaged in transit.

I discourage returns, because they often get broken coming back; which causes hard feelings. It took me quite awhile to learn how to wrap fragile pieces to keep them from breaking in transit.

Please limit ALL questions to the rocks/minerals that are actually on the website now. ————————————————————————————

I send out mass-mailed Heads-Up emails whenever I put several new pieces on the Website! I hope it doesn’t upset anyone on my mailing List. I want to keep the focus on my website.

IF you wish to be removed from my mailing List, just Reply with the word REMOVE in the subject line.

————————————————————————————

Pieces put in your Shopping Cart can Still be bought by other buyers until you pay for them! I never know what’s in your cart, until it’s paid for and I receive notice.
