Hello List,

I have just returned home today from Wisconsin with a couple of recovered
specimens, one of which has been sliced. The interior on some of the
slices is absolutely amazing. I have picked out a few of my favorite looking
pieces and have listed them on Ebay tonight.

I have been asked by many people what I think these new specimens are
worth, and what I would be willing to sell mine for?

I really don't know the answer to these questions.

So, instead of trying to guess at the supply and demand issues concerned
here, I figured I would let the free market decide for me. My hunch is that
these will sell up around $100/g but who knows for sure. Very little has
made it to market, and very little may ever make it to market. Then again,
a 500 pound main mass might be found and these could get a lot cheaper
later...providing the large mass would make it to market.

So I have put up a couple of part slices on ebay tonight with a 1 day
listing. I have a few more listed on the 3 day listings to allow everyone the
weekend to decide if they want a part slice and if they want to bid on
them. I know if I gave them a full week or 10 days the bids would likely go
higher, but why waste time when we all can figure out what these are worth
sooner?
