Dear Martin and List Members,

Thank you Martin for the invitation to receive your group's monthly news
letter. I believe you will have great success.

You stated:
"...which clearly stand out from the unmanageable flood of mediocre and
really bad stones sold e.g.on ebay..."

I agree that there are many bad and unscrupulous dealers/sellers on eBay and
elsewhere, but your statement "e.g. ebay" makes it sound as if all
meteorites offered on eBay are undesirable. I do not think you are doing the
collector right here with this statement as many rare and excellent
meteorites are first announced on eBay by myself and others. This is where I
have announced Lunars, Martians, Brachinites, Angrites and the list goes on
and on. It will continue to go on as I have more rare beauties to be
announced in the near future. I also prepare each specimen as if it were to
stay in my own personal collection, using a diamond lap polisher to a level
each individual meteorite requires.

I prefer to use eBay instead of a web site as I have had several Internet
concerns over the years and prefer not to go that route anymore for sales. I
find that I have more personal time for travel and other interests without a
web site to tend to.

I prepare and offer choice specimens from larger museum quality down to
smaller, more affordable specimens. I consider all ranges of collector
needs. If someone wants a larger specimen after my first initial offering,
they simply email me to see if I have something they are looking for.

I think your news letter is a great idea, but the sales end of your message
really stands out in your posting.

I mean no offense to you or any member of your news letter group, just want
to clarify what I believe was an unjust statement in your email.

Best regards and I look forward to receiving your news letter,

Greg Hupe
