Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 BUYER BEWARE!!! Now, in this Kali Yuga, bogus is taken as real. There is only one real Lakshmi Shank, and that is Valampuri Turbinella Pyrum from Indian Seas. This shell is sacred, very rare and valuable, costing hundreds of thousands of Rupees. But certain dealers are selling another type of shell, Lightning Whelk (busycon contrarium) from North America, a common Whelk shell, and calling as a SHANK (Conch), as "Valampuri" or "Dakshinvarti Lakshmi Shank". This is either ignorance of the truth OR fraud. Either way the result is the same, i.e., getting a BOGUS Valampuri. BUYER BEWARE!!! The list is a partial list and will be expanded.
