GEOU reproductions

"The Rieglers" is referring to the web site for fossil replicas offered   
for sale by the Open University, UK. For anyone interested, that site can   
be found at:

The UK Open University has been in the fossil replica supply business   
since the mid-90's, when it purchased an Essex based company formerly   
known as Educational Palaeontological Reproductions.  EPR had been in the   
business for about 25 years before being purchased by the University.

Based on my experience, the prices are now a little high--they were more   
competitive when sold through EPR. And many of the 2000 items are   
replicas of fossil invertebrates, so who cares anyway........:)

This is only a replica of my opinion.
