Ho Ho Hoooo List!

Today my large Kunya-Urgench is ending on ebay!
I ask myself, why there are no bids?
It's by far the largest specimen of this observed fall, which is still
available on market until there will be a revolution in Turkmenistan. All
what you will get else from Kunya nowadays are tiny crappy fragments, heavy
stained, in the size range 1 - 10grams. My one has whopping 168 grams and
it's fresher than the stuff offered elsewhere. The last specimen, which was
slightly larger was sold 2 years ago from the supplier, who, I presume, most
other sellers bought their Kunyas from.

I priced it at 2.50$/g. On the dealer_list 4 dealers offer Kunya. Average
price is 6.55/g.
Okay,okay - I conceed, Kunya is not a Gao, a Sikhote, a Hammami or a Nantan,
but I'm quite sure, that you'll be able to swap the chunk against half a
gram of Orissa!

Get it before Matteo takes it and resells for 10/gram!!

Sure, I'm living in Old Europe, but since two years or so our Pony Express
uses those smelling carriages without horses and once, believe it or not,
once I saw an immense bird high, high up in the sky, shimmering as it was
made of pure silver.. but don't tell to nem, I don't want back... Uh I hear
voices..this time they won't get me....

Merry Christmas to All!
Martin A.

PS: I'll take back this Kunya with full refunds, if you're able to find a
larger chunk available until 15th of January.
