Hi Folks!

I have a few offerings of interest, including a large Canyon Diablo
Riker display.

http://www.galactic-stone.com/product/0/Canyon-Diablo-Crater-Display-Kit--Famous-Iron-Meteorite_592091.html

This set would be perfect as a gift or perhaps as an outreach prop.
It has several different samples from the Canyon Diablo site - crater
sand, ejecta rim rock, tiny shrapnels, large individual iron, and tiny
spheroids from the Nininger collection. (the latter have a copy of
the original collection label)

Forget the price on the website - US Met-List members can have this
kit for $80 shipped! Canadian and Overseas buyers is $100 shipped via
USPS Priority International Box. (typically about one week delivery
time)

I also have the entire 2008 year of Meteorite Magazine (4 quarterly
issues) for $50 shipped. Again, ignore the price on the website -
that price is for the general public and not Met List members.

I also have some beautifully-crusted and fresh stony meteorites from
a variety of recent falls - some of these are oriented and 100%
crusted. All of them come in dessicated Riker boxes with display
labels - ready for your cabinet or display shelf. All of these are
prime examples of their respective falls, or they wouldn't have been
in my private/personal collection cabinet. I'm not a "high roller"
collector, so I can't afford BIG stones that are this nice, so I
collect the nicest ones I can afford - the offerings below are of high
quality. Again - ignore the prices on the website. Met-List members
get 25% off of the prices for the specimens below :

Bassikounou 4.69 grams, fully 100% crusted in FRESH velvety,
pitch-black fusion crust. This is as nice as a small Bassikounou
gets.

Chergach 6.63 grams, fully-oriented with prominent roll-over lip. 98%
fully crusted in FRESH black velvety fusion crust. This is one of the
freshest Chergach stones I have ever seen. It must have been
collected right after it first hit the dirt. It has one tiny spot on
the fusion crust where the unoxidized matrix is exposed.

Oum Dreyga 4.53 grams, Oriented and 100% FRESH fusion crust. Just
like the two stones above, this one is truly "fresh" - pitch black,
matte-velvety crust. This one didn't sit in the desert long before
someone scooped it up and protected it from oxidation.

Bensour 2.35 grams - 100% FRESH black crust. This one has a nice
rounded organic shape that reminds me of a tiny pea-pod.

FINDS : (don't forget, you get 25% off of these prices shown below)

Gold Basin (with Aerolite label and Kriegh/Monrad provenance) - this
one is a "faux-individual". This means it is a nice round fragment
that is not jagged - at first glance, it could resemble a small
"individual". It's spherical, like a weathered marble. If you want a
collectible Gold Basin fragment, this is it.

http://www.galactic-stone.com/product/126516/Gold-Basin--Arizona-Meteorite--Jim-Kriegh-Personal-Find_1066934.html

I also have the following available - Juancheng crusted fragment,
Tamdakht crusted fragment, Moldavites, and cheap bulk UNWA lots for
outreach or gifts. (small slices, endcuts and fragments).
