Exchange offer

I hope that exchange offers are allowed on this forum.
I am looking for nice live-taken specimens of Haliotis stomatiaeformis as well as of Cypraea lurida (one specimen over 50mm and one over 54mm) as welll as nice Cyp. turdus cf. micheloi and Lessepsian Cyp. gracilis notata.
In exchange I can offer uncommon to rare non-Mediterranean Haliotidae and Harpidae as well as Conidae, Cypraeidae, Muricidae etc. and I will send my spare list to any person interested.
Thanks forward for any help,

Franck Frydman

Hello Franck. Pay attention please: Luria lurida, just like other Mediterranean cowries, is a preserved species (see Berna and Barcelona agreements). So, I think it would not be a good idea to look for live-taken specimens of this species in the Internet.
I hope you will not feel yourself hurted by my words, it's only a common-sense affair.
Best regards

Then how can I find somebody who has what I am looking for?
Regarding the collecting ban on Cyp. lurida I am French and in France, how could I know?

P. S.: I do not collect cowries -I collect Harpidae and Haliotidae- so I do not get all the infos about cowries.
