I have never done that. People sell them on etsy, ebay, and such but I haven't figured out how to do paypal as a vendor. I realize it is probably simple but the sign up process was annoying and confusing, even though I use paypal to buy things online frequently.

I just go to the crystal worshipper shops on Mt. Shasta and sell them directly to them. I have cut thousands of slabs of jewelry quality non-crystal stones that I could sell to jewelry hobbyists; I had to build another building to put them in. I prefer the thrill of discovery over the joys of creativity, so I am not interested in making jewelry, etc., I just like hiking, and reading the geology of the terrain to know where to look.

I have a fancy little lapidary shop now right by my house on the street, but not sure if I want to spend my time hanging out at a storefront, when I could be out hiking. I do find interacting with the crystal worshippers to be fun, as giving them rocks that they think have power kind of gives me wizard status to them, which I find hilarious.
