Hi Greg,

This has nothing to do with price. Jack's team that did a tremendous amount
of legwork and labor to recover this fall and it is up to them when/if to
reveal any details. As much as I would like to be there, I respect the fact
that they earned this fall. I doubt any of this material will be sold
anyway. When you work that hard to find something, it just isn't worth
selling.

Kind regards,

Mike Bandli

I would like to go join the hunt for meteorites at the recent fall, but it
seems this is being kept a secret location... Is this to drive the prices
up?

One would think extra sets of eyes and hands would be great, but in my
opinion it seems a select group is the only ones who will be "allowed"
hunting the field then they will in turn charge $100 per gram, yet again for
something that is worth far less.

Not cool at all. I know I will not be buying from any of you hunting ever
again who dont want to allow someone to tag along for the first hunt they
would do.
If this is the way you "big time" hunters want to conduct yourselves, it
shows just what your intentions are. Money.

Greg C.
