Hello Everyone,

Over the next month, two months…not sure how long this will take, I am going
to sell off the majority of my personal collection including many of the
choice pieces. Because of family need and since I really have a LOT of
meteorites and related. I am going to sell off enough of the collection to
buy a small home locally. Houses are pretty cheap here so I hope this only
take about half my collection. Even then I will still likely be tripping
over meteorites and related. I tend to go a little overboard on everything,
which is why my old handle was "The Big Collector".

So that means anything is up to grabs….untill I raise the funds I need.
Main Masses, Thin Sections, Artwork, Books…..feel free to make an offer on
something I have and I will try to start listing seveal dozen items on ebay
every night. I will note these items Collection Piece, Collection Item or
the like.

Again, I am not going anywhere, and should be more eletronically active in
the next several months.

I estimate 800-1000 different meteorites in collection, 100 thin sections,
400 books, 300 postcards, 200 tektites…up to 400g, 200 article reprints and
more. Meteorite Roman Coins, Meteorite collectibles..

Oh yeah….and impactite. I only know three people with larger impactite
collections. Several noteworthy pieces…like the only shattercone known from
Brent crater, a double shattercone, larger impactite slices and the like…in
the 1-2 kg. range from several meteorite structures. This is really a
musuem collection.

Basically……anything meteorite related. As I was saying I tend to go
overboard on things. If I was to sell 90% of my collection I would still
have what many would consider an advanced collection. I am only planning on
selling about half or a little more. I need about $30,000-40,000 more then
what I have.

Interested in something I have let me know, the photo gallery on my website
gives you some ideal of what I have…..
