Meteorite prices have fluctuated in the past, and will continue to do so.
Prices are dictated by supply and demand. I wouldn't recommend
buying meteorites as investments, as it is a very risky endeavour, in
my opinion. I would hope most people are buying meteorites as collectors
and for the enjoyment of owning pieces of rocks from space.
