November/December: We want to reminder you that our holiday sales are still going on. We've posted recaps of what is still available from Black Friday ROCKS! on the Seaside Stones - Online Rock Shop (See LINKS and MORE below). Sale prices will be honored through the end of today (December 1st). Cyber Monday ROCKS! is tonight. Recaps will be posted on Tuesday, and sale prices will be honored through the end of the day on Friday. In Cabochons, Beads, and More (See LINKS and MORE below), we've posted sale cabs on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Artisan Sunday, and will post another one tonight. Those sales will run through the 15th. Additionally, any purchase during our holiday LIVE shows or from our holiday sale posts will qualify you for a holiday gift from us. To receive your gift, your invoice must be paid by December 19th. We are also going to schedule one or two more holiday shopping LIVE shows, we will post events on our Seaside Stones Facebook page once we figure out when they will be. Look for those events to be posted later this week. (Remember, you can sign up for text message reminders for our LIVE shows.)

Look for a change to our invoices in December. We are making a change to clarify the process of adding insurance to your package. We have not yet scheduled the December LIVE shows, but we are planning on cab LIVES the first two weekends and maybe the third and fourth as well. We are also thinking about sale ROCK! LIVES on the 4th and 11th. Plus, Chris will be posting daily on Cabochons, Beads, and More, although he may take a few days off so you can enjoy the holidays. 

On to November's recap - Part of the recap was at the beginning of the newsletter. Beyond that, we had two shows, Brewer ME and Worcester (Webster) MA. We also spent Thanksgiving Day with friends. And, we were busy getting ready for our holiday shopping LIVE shows. What was new in November? Some amazing cabs! New Montana Agate, 10-12mm Moonstone rounds, spectacular Malachite Chrysocolla, among a few other things

December's Featured "Item" - We are marking things down on our website, and we will be adding items throughout the month.

HOW OUR INVOICES WORK: Invoices are due as per the information included on your invoice. Invoices can be left open if you are still shopping (max 30 days). If you pay your invoice, we assume you want us to ship. If you are still shopping, please leave your invoice open. Weekly reminders are sent, and a final reminder is sent at 30 days. Once an invoice hits 30 days, any new claims will be put on a future invoice which will be on hold until your current invoice is paid. Also, if your invoice is not paid per the final reminder, your order will be canceled. We do understand there are extenuating circumstances, so as the final invoice reminder says, please contact us if you need a few extra days, and we will try to work with you.

We do not insure packages when the invoice is less than $300; however, you can add OPTIONAL INSURANCE. If you want to add insurance, please use the tipping option on your invoice. For more information, you can read one of our older blog post here.

LIVE SHOW TEXT REMINDERS - Want a reminder text for our LIVE shows? You can opt in by signing up here. We are only using text messaging for LIVE show reminders.

TRAVEL IMPACT - We travel periodically from March through November. Please make sure to review the Travel Impact/E-Newsletter section of your invoice to know how our travel will impact shipping (and drilling).

Online orders are subject to MAINE SALES TAX. If you have a resellers certificate or whatever your state calls it (state issued document, not the federally issued EIN document) and you haven’t sent us a copy, please email it to seasidestoneseastport@gmail.com.
