MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO, DURING THE MIOCENE TIME PERIOD, THE OCEAN WAS RAVAGED BY ONE OF THE LARGEST AND MOST FUROSCIOUS SHARKS TO HAVE EVER EXSISTED. THE CHARCHAROCLES MEGALODON. WITH ADULT SHARKS REACHING LENGTHS OF CLOSE TO 65 FEET, AND MAXIMUM TOOTH SIZE OF 7 1/16 INCHES, THIS WAS BY FAR THE MOST DEADLIEST PREDATOR TO HAVE EVER ROAMED THE OCEANS. FORTUNATELY THESE SHARKS ARE LONG GONE AND BECAME EXCTINCT AROUND THE PLIOCENE EPOCH , ABOUT 2 MILLION YEARS AGO. THE FOSSILIZED REMAINS OF THE MEGALODON CAN BE FOUND WORLD WIDE.
IMPORTANT COLLECTOR FACTS.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY ANYONE WOULD BUY SHARKS TEETH, I CAN PERSONALLY SUGGEST THE PURCHASE OF THESE FOSSILS IS NOT ONLY FUN, BUT TO HOLD A TOOTH THAT WAS USED TO DECAPITATE AND RIP APART WHALES AND OTHER MARINE ANIMALS, IS AWESOME!! IF YOU GET A BIG TOOTH, IT IS EVEN MORE AWESOME AS THEN YOU GET TO IMAGINE THE SIZE THE SHARK WOULD HAVE BEEN AND THE FACT THAT THE SHARK HAD ROW UPON ROW OF TEETH THAT WERE RAZOR SHARP . FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND PRICE IT IS VERY SIMPLE. TEETH ARE BROKEN DOWN IN VARIOUS WAYS BY MOST DEALERS AND COLLECTORS. YOU START WITH THE HIGHEST PERCENT FOUND AND THAT IS POUNDAGE MATERIAL. THIS QUALIFIES AS HALVES AND PIECES, UP TO TEETH THAT ARE EVEN TIPPED OR HAVE A ROOT BUSTED AT THE CORNER. THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST AFFORDABLE TEETH, AND THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER BY DEALERS. SO FOR THOSE WHO THINK THEY CAN BY PARTIALS FOR PENNIES, THOSE DAYS WERE OVER AFTER THE SEVENTEES!! A GOOD 5 INCH HALF FOR INSTANCE IS WORTH AROUND TO RETAIL. COMPLETE TEETH ARE GRADED AS COMMERCIAL UP TO A GRADE, MUSEUM QUALITY TEETH. SIZE IS GRADED FROM SMALL TO LARGE AND AFTER THE MAGICAL 6 INCH MARK THE TEETH CAN SKY ROCKET IN VALUE. REPAIRED TEETH HAVE COME ALONG WAY. I AM A REPAIR ARTIST AND CAN ATTEST TO THE VALUE. I AM ALSO A COLLECTOR. BEFORE BUYING ANYTHING, SHOP AROUND. COMPARE. I HAVE ONLY ONE THING TO SAY AND IT IS VERY SIMPLE. DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF NEW DIVERS, AND SOME OF THE BIGGER DEALERS AGGRESIVELY BUYING AND GETTING NEW DIVERS INVOLVED, THE DIVE SPOTS ARE GETTING HAMMERED LIKE I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE IN MY LIFE!! FOR THOSE WHO INVEST IN TEETH, THIS IS NEWS TO THE EARS AS YOU CAN ONLY FIND SO MUCH, AND YES, THEY WILL RUN OUT AND EVENTUALLY THE FINDS WILL NOT SUPPORT THE DIVERS OUT THERE. MY FINDS ARE MINIMAL COMPARED TO MANY YEARS AGO. I HAVE SEEN OTHER DIVERS AND WHAT THEY ARE FINDING"NOT MUCH", THIS IS REAL, THIS IS NOT A JOKE, AND THIS IS THE FUTURE OF THE GOOD STUFF, BUY IT UP, IT IS NOT GOING TO LAST.!!!

OUR HISTORY:
MY NAME IS MATTY SWILP AND I HAVE BEEN DIVING AND COLLECTING FOSSILS SINCE I WAS ABOUT 6 YEARS OLD. MY FATHER GOT ME STARTED BY TAKING ME AND MY BROTHERS TO THE LOCAL SAND MINES IN SUMMERVILLE SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE WE HUNTED SHARKS TEETH. WHEN I WAS ABOUT 18 I STARTED DIVING HEAVEY AND EVENTUALLY MOVED TO BEAUFORT SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE I OPENED A STORE CALLED "STONES & BONES" WHICH MY MOTHER OPERATED FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS. I ALSO WORKED AS A PREP ARTIST IN THE CHARLESTON MUSEUM EARLIER , AND HAVE DONATED THOUSANDS OF ITEMS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY . I LOVE DIVING AND COLLECTING AND NOW HAVE THE WONDERFUL TIME OF SHARING MY ADVENTURES WITH MY WIFE AND CHILDREN. I CAN SAY MY OLDER DAUGHTER HAS HAD GREAT TIMES TAKING VARIOUS FOSSILS TO SCHOOL FOR SHOW AND TELL. MY WIFE RUNS E-BAY NOW AND WHEN SHE CAN SHE IS MY BOAT CAPTAIN. WHEN WE ARE DOWN SOUTH I TAKE MY KIDS TO THE RIVERS AND OCEAN TO RIDE AND SEE NATURE AND THE DOLPHINS. DIVING FOR FOSSILS HAS BEEN THE MOST REWARDING ASPECT OF MY LIFE IN THAT I HAVE SEEN AND SPENT PRICELESS HOURS OUT IN NATURE AND SHARED MUCH OF MY LIFE WITH MY FATHER WHO HAS BEEN MY BOAT CAPTAIN FOR WELL OVER 15 YEARS. WEATHER I FIND ONE BROKEN TOOTH OR NOTHING, I LOVE BEING OUT ON THE WATER AND EXPLORING . PLEASE ENJOY MY FINDS AND FOSSILS AS I PRESENT THEM FOR SALE ON E-BAY. I LOVE WHAT I DO, AND I LOVE MORE THAN ANYTHING THE JOY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE WHEN THEY BEHOLD SOME OF THE FOSSILS I FIND. WE HAVE A SPECIAL AND ONE OF A KIND PLANET THAT HAS AN INCREDIBLE HISTORY. MEGALODONS AND THE FOSSILS I FIND ARE FASCINATING AND IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US. IT IS MY PLEASURE TO MEET ALL OF YOU, AND I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU , FROM MY CUSTOMERS TO ANYONE WHO ENJOYS FOSSILS. THANKS FOR CHECKING MY E-BAY AUCTIONS. MATTY, AND YANA SWILP.
