OK, dealers, now that we've scared poor James half to death and maybe even
driven him to bury all of his green snails under the new moon, here's a
slightly different question. What WAS a Manus Island Tree Snail worth when
it was still legal to buy them? How did that price compare with other
well-known shells on sale at the time?
