I have added several new meteorite listings today, including some rare types never offered before. I have also listed more than 40 pieces and lots of amber. Between new meteorites and new amber, I have spent the better part of the last 3 days processing this new material and getting it listed on the website. For those of you who are wondering - I have branched out into amber to diversify my business. Meteorites will always be my main focus, but I was offered a large collection of amber at a price I could not refuse, so these pieces are now available on my website.

Any amber collectors who are reading this are going to be pleasantly surprised at the specimens I have available. Meteorites and amber have a few things in common - both have dwindling supplies, both have increasing demand, both have a multitudes of types, and both are climbing in price at a steady pace. I have several hundred pieces of amber and I am going through them and listing them, starting with some of the nicer or bigger pieces. Copal is "young amber" that is not fully fossilized yet, although most copal is very old (a few thousand to 2 million years old). I have a wide variety of pieces to fit all budgets - from small common pieces to rare types and insect inclusions. I applied my knowledge of polishing meteorites to amber - so some of these pieces have been hand-polished by me, while many are rough and unsearched. I do not have time to search every piece, so if you get a raw piece with an insect inside (which would be revealed after polishing), then the value of your specimen has just multiplied by 4x or 5x, depending on what type of inclusion is inside.
