I remember getting an issue of Astronomy that had an article on = collecting meteorites and after the article, there was a listing of = meteorite collectors. I couldn't believe there were so many people that = were selling meteorites besides the one. My second set of meteorites came from Al Mitterling and I still have = them. I've also bought from a number of other dealers. Mike Farmer, = Rob Elliot, Sergey Vasiliev, Bob Haag and Mike Casper to name a few. = Everyone of the dealers I have bought from have sent me great specimens = and the prices were great. Also, these dealers are all very honest and = have taken the time to choose the right specimens for me. If I only had = a few hundred to spend (or less), it didn't matter. There are varying = degrees of quality for meteorites, I agree, but the above dealers that I = mentioned and more that I haven't have museum quality specimens for sale = or can obtain them if that is what you want. Some people may have differing opinions of Mr.. Casper but he was always = very helpful to me....so we won't get in to that :-) Jamie ------=_NextPart_000_0021_01C3FE04.A5C548C0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2800.1106" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>My first meteorite was a Canyon Diablo, = that I=20 bought from Farrell.
