Do your own searches, as some sites may have closed. There are too many fossil pages and groups to list. Before purchasing anything, do your research on the item and the seller. It’s like buying a diamond; the size, color, whether natural or repaired, condition (including serrations, enamel, wear, etc.), market, competition, and availability all affect the price.
