There was a story told to me years ago by an old mariner who traveled the seven seas. He spoke of wonderful things like golden volcanic ash, oceanic pebbles the colour seaweed green, and wave polished glass the deep hue of burgundy wine. He spoke of treasures once in hand, like chains of gold and silver lost when his ship went down amidst the torrential deluge of a hurricane. He also mentioned a lost tribe of islanders who nurtured him back to health with coconut milk and a honey like drink. We bartered a little and he gave me two shells...one which I auctioned off here some time ago. And now I am offering once again the last Mysterious Shell.

Bidding begins with one cent.................that's one penny.  

This contest can and will and end at any time. Shipping and handling are free.

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against
you till it seems you could not hold on a minute longer,
never give up then for that is just the place and time that
the tide will turn.
