The Rock Counter

Great Lakes stones and slag, from verified rock shops or individuals, all in one place. This is a window, not a store: an aggregator of everyone's hard work to make shopping rocks easy.

Every seller is verified by Michigan Rock Elders before a single listing goes up. Every listing leads to the seller. Tap one and you land on their store, their Facebook, or a text to them. No money changes hands here. No cart, no checkout. You pay the seller, they keep all of it.

EVERY LISTING LEADS TO THE SELLER · NO MONEY CHANGES HANDS HERE

How it works

1

Find the stone

Search, or filter by seller, by stone, by what it is (rough, polished, slabs, jewelry, supplies, merch) and by price.

2

Buy from the seller

Every listing opens with a button to the seller's own page, their Facebook, or a text. You and the seller work out payment and pickup or shipping, the way you already do on Marketplace.

3

Pay the seller, not me

There's no cart on this page on purpose. The seller keeps every dollar. If someone asks you to pay some way that feels off, tell me and I'll look into it.

Sell here

FREE TO LIST · YOU KEEP EVERY DOLLAR

This is a window, not a store. Your rocks show up here, a buyer taps one, and the button takes them straight to you: your own store page, your Facebook, or a text to your phone. They pay you the way they already pay you. Nothing sells on this site and no money moves through it.

IF YOU HAVE A SHOPIFY STORE

Do nothing

Send me your store address once. Your whole catalogue comes in and then keeps itself up to date off your store, so sold out on your site is gone here and new on your site turns up here. Every card says "Buy from your shop" and opens your product page.

IF YOU SELL ON FACEBOOK, ETSY OR AT SHOWS

Post them here

A photo and a price, about a minute a rock. You get a link by text that signs you in. The buyer's button becomes "Message on Facebook" or "Text the seller", and you can add a Venmo or PayPal link so they can pay you right from the card.

Apply to be verified

Takes two minutes. Every application is checked and verified by experts, and you get a text back, usually the same day.

Already verified?

Sign in with your seller code to post, edit and mark things sold. It takes a minute per stone.

Post your listings
  • Don't have a store? Sell directly here; get verified, post your stuff, and include your payment method (venmo/cashapp).
  • Have a Shopify store? Tell Steven the address and your whole catalogue comes in on its own and keeps itself up to date. Nothing to post by hand.

Buying from a seller

Pay how you would on Marketplace. Their own store page, their Venmo or PayPal, or cash at pickup. This page never asks you for a card.

Ask for a photo in daylight if the listing shot is under a lamp. Good sellers send one without blinking.

Something off? Text me at 815-768-5358 with the seller's name. I read every one and I'll pull a badge if I have to.
