What??
       "...they do have some scientific value..."

Yeah you're right, meteorites are fairly scientifically insignificant, we
can't really learn anything from them. No seriously, are you kidding?? Only
some scientific value?? Wow. Maybe just a poorly worded sentence. But if
that is what you think about meteorites, wow. Beyond that, I got no comment.

Hello All,
Seems to me that using website prices isn't too good of an idea.
After all, meteorites are only worth what people are willing to pay
for them -- they have no practical value or set price. In fact,
they're really just collectors' items now (they do have some
scientific value but I know for a fact that most of you collectors and
dealers aren't in it for the science). Website prices merely reflect
the opinions of a few select individuals trying to make a profit -- if
you really take website prices seriously we should all be paying $1.50
- $6 per gram for Sikhote Alin. I've never paid that in my six years
collecting...and hope never never to for a Sikhote... Ebay is the one
true place left where the buyers set the price, therefor, it should
give a good estimate of the current market value of meteorites. If
people are only willing to pay $500 per gram for that stone (on ebay),
guess what -- it's probably worth only that.
Regards,
Jason
