Shipping Cost Whoas!!

Dear Ebayers,

It is with sad heart that I hear the USPS are upping their rates again.  It is ironic that the higher the shipping costs the lower the quality of the service.  I understand the fuel prices and all that but I wish there was something that I, the little guy could do. We thought about going with UPS but the prices were even higher. 

Anyway the purpose of this blog is to let you know, if you don't know already, our shipping costs will be going up again. We are trying our best to keep shipping to a minimum.

Well, have a great spring and keep up the rock hounding and remember to watch where you step because you might be standing on a gold mine.

A Little About Us:

Rockcraft Gems was created in 1967, by Edward Drake, who is the ultimate rock hound.

After circling the globe 7 times and visiting 54 different countries his collection began to grow as did his knowledge.

He opened his first store with the idea of passing that knowledge on along with the passion for the hobby.

A Few Supricing Facts

Dear E-Bayer,
  Ed and I, would like to thank you for visiting us here at Rockcraft Gems.
  We are extremely pleased with our first years growth here on E-Bay and all our returning costumers.
  The one thing we are the most proud of, is the high quality of items and personal service we offer to you
our customers. 

 For example,  the fact that we only sell "new" books.


   This fact, seems to amaze most buyers, how leave possitive feedback, exclaiming the fact that thier
book was still in the selifain wrapper from the publisher, unopened.


  But, another fact is, that not only do we sell, high quality, new books, but we also read and assess
every book to determined if it is well written and has quality photo's or drawings we demand.


  However, we even go one step further, and search out the lowest prices on the books available, so that
we can pass that savings on to you, our customers.


  If you have any comments or questions about the books we sell, or the books you would like to see us
sell, please feel free to drop us an e-mail.  We will do our best to forfill your wishes.


  And, in conclusion we would ask that you drop us a note and tell us about your projects.  This way we
can taylor our product selection around our customers and thier needs.


  We wish you all, happy rockhounding and lapidary indeverses for the new year, and hope to hear from
you soon.
