About Us

As a young boy growing up in suburban Northern New Jersey, I'd collect fossils from the open cleared fields of weathered rocks-dropped off by retreating Pleistocene glaciers. Thus began a lifetime fascination with fossils and paleontology. Over the years I have collected in over 20 American states and provinces of Canada.

The internet has opened up for me a new frontier of discovery. Less than two years ago, I started "Richie's Rocks," a paleo-trading site. Through this vehicle I have made many new acquaintances, and have expanded a parochial collection to a world wide one.
