Dear List Members,

I have several excellent auctions ending this afternoon, some of these
represent the last or largest pieces I have in stock. This week, I loaded
bigger specimens and started them all out at just 99 cents in an effort to
promote greater collector satisfaction. I also loaded some more 1 kilo lots
of unclassified, uncleaned and uncut bulk material at a starting price of
less than 5 cents a gram with a Buy-it-Now price of less than 6 cents a
gram. These tier level 3-4 lots are be offered at tier level 5 (completely
terrestrialized) prices representing a good value. In a short matter of
time, it may be impossible to get any chondrites at just 5 cents a gram no
matter what they look like. There are plenty of specimens still at the 99
cent mark representing some true bargains!

To see all of the too numerous to list outstanding auctions, click on this
link. Several of these still have no bid and are at the opening price of
just 99 cents so be sure to check them out:

1.57 gram chunk of New Orleans! This will be the LAST piece I run for awhile
as I am running very low on this material. This meteorite has generally been
selling for ~$40.00 a gram, a true bargain in comparison with other hammer
stones now averaging well over $150.00 a gram. This example was started at
just 99 cents with no reserve and is nowhere near what one would expect to
pay for a hammer stone with such a rich history:

LARGEST PIECE I HAVE LEFT of NWA 2918 CO3.0, the least metamorphosed CO in

considered a 3.0! This controversial stone is currently under study by no
less than 5 laboratories, started at just 99 cents:
