Dear Group,
        My name is Kirk, I live in Wisconsin. I am a NEW member in the group. I
wish you all well, and I look forward to learning from you all.
        I am just beginning my Meteorite collection, although I have been
interested in them for years now. I would like to add a few new pieces
to my collection, while trying to keep my costs down. I would like to
begin with by adding a nice piece of the Allende Meteorite to my
collection, I have heard a great deal about its beauty and colors. I
ALSO would like to add a Stony piece and a Stony-Iron speciman. Perhaps
a piece of NWA869 or something similiar for the Stony piece, and perhaps
a piece of the Imilac Meteorite for the Stony-Iron speciman. I would
also like an example perhaps of a non-Henbury Iron type speciman, I
already have a nice piece of Henbury. And....I would like to add that I
can't spend toooo much right now, but I would like to add these 3 or 4
pieces to my collection right now, while I learn more about some of the
others.
        I hope that there will be some good folks out there who will come
forward, who can sell me some nice GENUINE pieces, at a REASONABLE
price. I know now is a good time to start collecting more, because the
prices are down.
        So I am looking for someone to help me get going. Please contact me
off-list if you would like, or on-list too! Thank you very much in
advance! Have a great July 4th everyone, but play it safe!
                        Sincerely,
                                Kirk.........
