I am trying to raise some cash to pay for all the
stuff I bought in morocco recently (And am feeling
pretty poor right now) so if anybody is interested I
will have a blowout sale on the diogenite. The main
mass has that really stunning melted area on the cut
surface. It is a special specimen for sure.

Main Mass $2150
50.3 gram piece $699
#3 - $69
#8 - $57.50
#10 - $22
#12 - $30
#15 - $22
#17 - $19
#18 - $59
#20 - $85
#21 - $27
The rest has all been sold - even if its not marked
sold
$5 postage on all orders
Cheers
DEAN (AMUNRE on ebay where there are more meteorites)
