I agree entirely on the proposals of Paul in this matter.
We purchase GEM (and there is only 10 % of these in any kind of shells, even
Cowries, who look GEM, but are fine) at 33 % of buyers price, but we will
gladly purchase a Conus primus at 80 % of selling price. Do you know how
many shells you have to pack at 3 $ for the 20 % of the profit on a Conus
primus ?
Best regards, Guido
