We do not know for sure when, where or by whom on Lafayette.</P> <P>Please educate us on which NWA meteorite lost 95% of it's value in 24 hours. Was this just another of your broad, sweeping statements made for shock value?<BR><BR>Also, Wagon Mound is not selling for what it sold per gram when it was first found. This is just not a true statement. Actually I remember when one dealer had a sale in which he GAVE AWAY a sample of Wagon Mound with every purchase. Does this lower the value to zero. No, not anymore than a sale on any commodity at a retail store.</P> <P>Brahin once sold for $10- per gram. Now it can be bought on ebay for less than $1- sometimes. How much are you selling it for on your website? You seem to have omitted the price on this one. <A href="http://www.angelfire.com/me2/meteorites/">http://www.angelfire.com/me2/meteorites/</A></P> <P>Randy</P></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>>From: "Meteordealer" <METEOR.DEALER_at_GTE.NET> <DIV></DIV>>To: <METEORITE-LIST_at_METEORITECENTRAL.COM> <DIV></DIV>>Subject: [meteorite-list] Re: CR2 prices ruin...... <DIV></DIV>>Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 04:06:50 -0500 <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> "Legitimate" meaning it has a unique name and we know where, when, total <DIV></DIV>>mass, how, and by whom it was found. Also meaning that the appropriate lab <DIV></DIV>>work and pairing has been done. Have any meteorites other than an NWA lost <DIV></DIV>>95% of their value in a 24 hour period? Not that i recall. Are most NON <DIV></DIV>>NWA's with the exception of a few still selling at about the same price as <DIV></DIV>>they always have? Yes. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Brad Sampson <DIV></DIV>>meteor.dealer_at_gte.net <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>----- Original Message ----- <DIV></DIV>>From: "Michael Blood" <MLBLOOD_at_COX.NET> <DIV></DIV>>To: "Meteordealer" <METEOR.DEALER_at_GTE.NET> <DIV></DIV>>Cc: <METEORITE-LIST_at_METEORITECENTRAL.COM> <DIV></DIV>>Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 3:41 AM <DIV></DIV>>Subject: CR2 prices ruin...... <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> > Meteordealer wrote: <DIV></DIV>> > > What instability???
