Semi-precious stones

Post by Dalmas »

Some years ago, I bought several semi-precious sets of Go stones on http://www.algorithmicartisan.com/gostones/ which I don't really use anymore.
I played only with two of them, so the other are new and still in their original plastic packages.

If any of you are interested, tell me which set you would like to get, and I will give you a price, probably something around a third of the original price (depending on their condition).

The following ones are in mint condition :
- Goldstone $180
- Black Goldstone $180
- Lava $160
- Turquoise, Faux $160
- Tiger Iron $160
- Carnelian $160 (darker than on the picture)
- Hematite $180
- Green Lace Stone $180
- Dumortierite $160
- Malachite, imitation $70 (seems not available anymore)
- Opal glass $130

These are the two sets I played with :
- Jade $120
- Tiger eye $120

Of course I can give you a discount if you are interested in multiple sets.

Please PM me or email me (chonas009@hotmail.com) about the prices of the dourmalite, jade, and green lace. I've been interested in these sort of stones for a while (though you don't have the 2 I most wanted in blue lapis and malachite).

If you happen upon the lapis let me know that one as well.

I received many questions about the prices, so I added them directly. Check my first post.

- What about the shipping costs?

As I live in Europe (France), shipping fees may be expensive especially if you live in the US. I will be glad to offer them if they are reasonable, but consider adding $40 to the total price if you are american. (It may be more or less depending on your exact location)

It's usually not a good idea to post your email address in a public forum. Programs roam the internet looking for email addresses to send spam to. I'd edit it out, and send it in a private message to Dalmas.

Hi,

Just wanted to say that I have just bought black goldstone, hematite, opal glass and jade sets from Dalmas.
They look beautiful and shipment was fast.
I would highly recommend doing business with him if you are interested in semi-precious go stones for a fraction of the price asked anywhere else.
