Hello Sand Collectors!

NOTE: I still have a "trade list" although I am really not interested in trading for sand anymore...I have limited space and time which has required a change of attitude in collecting; I still collect for myself and usually collect more than I need. However, it's a quandary since I am only interested in trading for rare or unusual samples due to my space limitations. For instance, I'm not likely to get to Japan or Australia, so those places interest me. If you have something rare and/or unusual in your trade list I'd be interested in trading for these, and if necessary, more than "one to one" for rare sands.

The trade list.

Things you should be aware of before trading...

See images and compare some of the sand samples on my trade list!

PLEASE NOTE:

I do not clean my sands!!!

If I had unlimited time to spend on this obsession I would, but alas, they are as I collected them (or as they were sent to me). I do pull out pieces of flora or larger pebbles, but it is likely smaller pieces are still in some samples.

My trade sample size will fill a 35mm film canister.

This list is probably not entirely accurate. Please email me to make sure your choices are still available. Thanks!

Some (not many) do have lat/long's but they mey be cut off - email me and I can get those to you. They are marked on the sample as well so if you trade for them, the lat/long will be clearly marked. I do have some images available of the actual sand or a map of the area, or both. Follow the underline links to view these images.
