<P>Hi Dean:</P>
<P>Could you answer a few questions for me?</P>
<P>I have been lead to believe by your list postings&nbsp;over the past couple of years that you have been to Morocco only twice and that your main method of operation is to have large amounts shipped directly to you in Canada.&nbsp; You have claimed in the past that this keeps the costs down and I agree it should.</P>
<P>How is it that you now&nbsp;claim to deal only with the nomads for your meteorites when everyone knows that the majority of meteorites coming out of Morocco originate in Algeria?&nbsp; Are you saying that you go to Algeria?</P>
<P>Since you have only been to Morocco twice, how can you claim to know the activities of the other dealers who actually make the trip to Morocco frequently such as Fectay, Labenne, Carion, Farmer, etc.&nbsp; You are aware that the Moroccans will tell you what they think that you want to hear don't you.&nbsp; So if you are relying on what your contacts are telling you then you are probably being lied to.</P>
<P>I do not think it is fair for you to try to elevate yourself over the other dealers bringing meteorites out of Morocco by using what is obviously false claims.&nbsp; I think that you have done a great service to collectors by having meteorites shipped to you and offering them at discount prices.&nbsp; I just think you should not tarnish your reputation by claiming to know everything that is going on in Morocco when you have only been there twice.</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;Subject: [meteorite-list] R4 Blowout Sale on Ebay
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Date: Tue, 05 Mar 2002 16:09:34
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I didnt spend as much time as other dealers in the meteorite markets
<DIV></DIV>&gt;searching over resellers meteorites when I was in morocco in January
<DIV></DIV>&gt;- as
<DIV></DIV>&gt;unlike other dealers I usually go out into the desert where the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;nomads live
<DIV></DIV>&gt;to buy my meteorites so that I get first look at what is being
<DIV></DIV>&gt;offered.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Since I was there anyway though I did spend a couple days going
<DIV></DIV>&gt;around to
<DIV></DIV>&gt;all of the resellers and there is currently a large amount of the R
<DIV></DIV>&gt;chondrites that you have recently been seeing offered for general
<DIV></DIV>&gt;sale
<DIV></DIV>&gt;available in morocco now but the nomads and moroccan resellers all
<DIV></DIV>&gt;know what
<DIV></DIV>&gt;it is and after seing it offered for $200 a gram on ebay they want
<DIV></DIV>&gt;big bucks
<DIV></DIV>&gt;for it.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I bought a few R4 stones and sold most of what I bought to my
<DIV></DIV>&gt;regular
<DIV></DIV>&gt;buyers. I have remaining a single 69 gram R4 that I have just cut up
<DIV></DIV>&gt;and put
<DIV></DIV>&gt;on ebay at the lowest price that any R chondrite has ever been
<DIV></DIV>&gt;offered at by
<DIV></DIV>&gt;any dealer. Becides the ebay auctions I have a 3.48 and a 4.78 gram
<DIV></DIV>&gt;complete
<DIV></DIV>&gt;slice and a 12.7 and a 16.5 gram endpieces. The endpieces might be
<DIV></DIV>&gt;sold as I
<DIV></DIV>&gt;am meeting a customer later today but whatever I have left out of
<DIV></DIV>&gt;these four
<DIV></DIV>&gt;specimens is $35 a gram to list members if I dont sell it today. Or
<DIV></DIV>&gt;see my
<DIV></DIV>&gt;ebay auctions. User id "amunre". I have just listed 16 auctions of
<DIV></DIV>&gt;the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;current R4 material that is currently circulating around morocco on
<DIV></DIV>&gt;ebay.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;All of the auctions have buy it now options so check asap for first
<DIV></DIV>&gt;choice.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;When I am in Morocco I usually get first look at the meteorites that
<DIV></DIV>&gt;are
<DIV></DIV>&gt;offered for sale so you might want to be first to do the same with
<DIV></DIV>&gt;my ebay auctions in order to get best pickings.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Cheers
<DIV></DIV>&gt;DEAN
