We all get attached to our treasured items!!
I have a couple of duplicates in my collection but cant sell them because you get attached - ha ha
They become like inanimate pets.
 
Good luck with the spheres - that is definitely unique!

Last week I decided to sell all of the 50mm x 50mm slices in my collection.
 
Originally I collected the slices to dentine if a particular meteorite would make a good candidate for a sphere
 
However, my 50mm sphere collection is growing and most of the slices were duplicated with spheres so I figured there was no need to have both.
 
Well I sold the entire collection to a single buyer last weekend, and even though I got a fair price I have a slight felling of loss.
 
I know this is normal and that I will get over it but I just figured venting would help it along.
