Review on πŸ¦• Trilobite Collections for Educational Purposes: Authentic Arthropod Specimens by Ken Coste

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money

I bought these for my 6 year old son who collects fossils. He finds some, but it will be fun to hide them next time we search. What I received looks almost exactly like the picture in the ad. Each piece is a trilobite pygdium/tail (no rib cage or head) and is approximately 1.5 inches at its widest point. So getting 5 pieces seems like a good price. The only thing that disappoints me a bit is the display case. I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary for the price, but it's not quite what I expected (glass or plexiglass panels with pieces glued in). Place when closed with the "legs" connected. This is an interesting solution that keeps them safe. It's basically like shrink wrap, but the reflections make it plasticky/cheap. But that is secondary. I paid for the fossils. and that's impressive considering the price paid.

Pros
  • A dream gift for collectors and fossil lovers. educational toy. Ideal gift for children who collect specimens.
Cons
  • I'll write later
