Hi list,

in general I find this discussions about "destroying field prices" very
strange.
I understand well that we are not living in a world full of elves and
dwarfs,
but how can one boast with paying the lowest, and from collector's view most
ridicolous price to the locals in extreme poor regions, who suffer from
living conditions, which we in the first world can't imagine.
If I would act so and would not be able to be ashamed , I would be at least
very quiet, instead to fish for applause, what for a great jewel I am in the
crown of the meteorite market or to attack others, who paid more to the
stupid aborigines and who are not so advanced yet in their lessons of
colonialism.

My personal opinion.
Martin A.
