Idle holiday weekend question:
Do other collectors find themselves experiencing disappointment, mild irritation or frustration when they encounter something that looks good at first glance but turns out to be mundane? Are there certain species that are pet peeves?
As I'm culling drift, I'm looking for the tell-tale spiral of most gastropods, but also items that are highly colored and highly sculptured.
For Caribbean drift, Bittiolum varium ranks up there for my personal fool's gold. I know--I should appreciate it for what it is. And I've learned to "look past" my initial responses.
What are other shell addicts' experiences? Objects of loathing and spite?
