I just received the following from Bret Raines if anyone is interested:

I finally came to a fork in the road and had to make a major decision.  The
Molluscs Net needs to grow and at the same time I must be able to continue
my research on pectens.  I have found at this time I can not do both in the
way I want to.  So I have decided to sell the Molluscs Net.  My hope is that
it will continue to be a service to all collectors around the world.  I
would appreciate, if you could spread the word and encourage anyone that you
know to buy it, who would give the time and love it needs to become bigger
and better.

Sincerely, Bret

Please contact Bret directly if you have any interest.
