How To Sell Or Buy Ivory?

How do I buy ivory stuff?

  • How do I buy ivory jewelry and figurines? I know they are illegal, but I want to start collecting them. Do they sell it on e-bay? How do I know they are real ivory?

  • Answer:

    Be absolutely sure you get impeccable provenance as to pre-ban importation, otherwise you will never be able to sell them and may get in trouble if you try to display them in a public forum. If you don't understand what this means, you need to explore it seriously perhaps talking to local museum people. Because of this, you will be paying a lot for each individual one.

If you want to look on Ebay, don't buy from the Chinese. they will claim black and blue that their products are ivory, but in 99.99% of items, it is only cheap plastic. Try and search out private collectors....they are about the only source that are reliable. You will pay more, but the items will probably be real.

you can buy them if they were sold before the ban and can be traced, this is very serious stuff, involving the killing of elephants, , the ban is international , the new fake ivory is made from bone and walrus tooth or plastic
