American Educational The U.S. Mounted Rocks and Minerals Collection (Pack of 100) Review
I should have known that buying a rock collection of 100 for this price would be cheaply built. However, I did not expect it to be this cheap. Each specimen is glued in its spot. The problem is that the back of the box the specimens are glued to comes apart with little pulling. Also, each specimen has no name or number directly on it so if it comes off, it is difficult to figure where it went. With the box mailed to you, you can guess what arrives. A box with any number of loose specimens in it and little idea where they go (I had 15 rolling around).I would find a better collection with individual compartments and the samples labled (So you can take them out and examine them). I do not recommend this purchase.
