Dean B= essy allowed collectors for a once in a lifetime chance at letting them h= ave CR2s at $23 a gram. People who would never have dreamed one year ago = at such an opportunity, now proudly display their CR2s and are expanding = their collections.He will sell out at Tucson leaving only three of us wit= h the lion's share of this find. The strewn field is small and totally wo= rked over.Those of us left will never after Tucson let this rare material= sell for under $100 a gram.I probably control half of the fall and will = personally keep or donate it to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto , Can= ada. [ about4,000+ grams]. Thus supply and demand kick in and those that = have it are in no hurry to sell it at low prices after Feb. 2002. For tho= se that bought CR2s from Dean, Congratulations on the great deal. For tho= se who didn't it's highly unlikely you will ever be offered this gift aga= in, which was more of a temporary parntnership to help offset Deans inves= tment.Dean has done well by buying from the source and adding a bit of a = mark up. He is providing material today that we could only have dreamed o= f a year ago at affordable prices. He has helped to expand the base of ou= r collecting community and is an asset to us.Those who bought in the past= at high prices should not worry. The material is limited and will contin= ue to sell to high prices in the future.
