    Dear List

         I am one of about 4 dealers who bought up CR2s in Morroco.We =
all shared our good fortune with friends, collectors and Ebay =
buyers.This however was a very temporary opportunity which will never be =
seen again. Dean Bessy allowed collectors for a once in a lifetime =
chance at letting them have 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 with the lion's share of this find. The =
strewn field is small and totally worked 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 , Canada. [ 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 those that bought CR2s from =
Dean, Congratulations on the great deal. For those who didn't it's =
highly unlikely you will ever be offered this gift again, which was more =
of a temporary parntnership to help offset Deans investment.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 of a year ago =
at affordable prices. He has helped to expand the base of our 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 continue to =
sell to high prices in the future. Best regards David Gregory=20
