Collection Sale

Hello List,

I have been aggressively collecting meteorites for the past 12 years and
have decided to sell off some of my collection specimens that are in many
regards one of a kind pieces and are of high quality. The provenance on all
most all specimens can be traced back to the finder/institution and all are
superior in their own right. All prices are below retail and many below
wholesale, which is unheard of for their quality. Thank you for looking and
please email me with any question.

Thanks and Take Care,

Jason Phillips
