Guest guest Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Dear Sriman, Namaste!!! Thanks for the Valampuri pics. It is genuine no doubt. I'm not looking to buy a Valampuri because I have one already. I just like to see others get the real valampuri too. So please always keep your shells pictured on this group and hopefully some member will purchase. This group has uncovered a number of genuine Valampuri dealers, and is good source of info.
