I have no qualms with asking the seller to sign and even personalize meteorite displays or certificates that comes along with any meteorite, I think it's a great sign of appreciation and respect. It builds a bond between both people. It also adds tremendous value and is a ironclad seal, securing provenance title-ship. But asking for an autographed photo, that is a bit of a stretch!However I would be honored to have such a item.


Kindest Regards,
