Matteo and List,

The initial offering of Besour was $15.00/g., go back and check the List
archives. A dealer made this original offer before the Hupes announced the
classification. After that, there were certain events that led to downward
price adjustments. However, I believe that there were some eager souls who
paid $12 to $15 per gram for the first pieces of Bensour.
