offer 1: Am bringing some virginia soapstone ( Black Pearl)  back to texas this month.  You can contact me direct through this web site.  Will be leaving the 12th and back on the 24th. John
buyer's response: John, Could you please let me know where you are located and the price on the soapstone you are bringing to Texas (where in Texas?)? Also is this the pure talc soapstone which is very soft and fine or the harder/courser stuff (Steatite?)? I would first be interested on a small piece to try it out--maybe one 50# piece--before deciding to get larger quantity, so please give the price break points by quantity. May 12
