That is a great story. You would think that someone that owns a rock
shop would be particularly keen on suspecting a meteorite, and also to
know that it would be most likely worth more that anything else in the
store... - and in the back room no less....

You know how they say you will never know what you find?Well today in
all
of the most unlikeliest place to find a meteorite, I did today.My wife
and
I were at a local mall doing some shopping when I found a rock shop
there.I was looking around and talking to the help there when we were
talking and I said I collect meteorites.Then she said we have afew old
iron pieces in the back.Well like a kid I put om a real big grin and
said,
can I see them.Lo and behold she brings out this huge NANTAN.A real
beauty.Hardly any rust or decay.And you believe the price.$100 for this
huge iron meteorite.I asked her to weigh it if she could.She says it
ways
around 20 ibs.It was heavy, and I said 10 kilo's for $100.I bought
it.Than
she let me see some others.Some rust buckets ,some pretty clean, and
some
dirty but ok.Hell for$100, I should have bought some more.You just never
know what you will find.Talk about being lucky again.
