I have been busy filing orders for = meteorites. Everything I posted the other day has sold. Large tektites can be found for sale. I have several 100+ gram pieces = in my collection. I got them a few years ago from Paul Liu of Great = Wall Consulting. The URL is here: http://www.greatwallct.com/ Many of the Chinese Tektites you see on ebay were obtained from Paul = (for pennies/gram)! Also, check out the Paul and Jim's Meteorite Exchange website. = http://www.meteorite.com/ They have a nice selection from many = localities and I believe more will be added soon. BTW, there is a guy selling on ebay who goes by the id "dagoodstuff" who = sells "large" and "huge" indochinites of 40 and 50 grams. Don't fall = for this. It is misleading seller hype. A 40 or 50 gram Chinese = tektite is by no means large and can be had for a lot less than his = selling price.
