Hello list, I do not post very often. I would guess
that 90% of the meteorite people on the list rarely if ever post. Anyway I
was wondering if the dealers at the top of the meteorite world still have time
to collect meteorites? Do you collect each new fall and or find that you sell?
Is it more fun to sell a new meteorite or to add it to your collection?
I am fairly new at collecting and selling
meteorites. Each time I see or find something that is new or different I tend to
collect it. I just added a Canyon Diablo to my collection that has a hole
through it. It would be very easy to sell it and make a few bucks, but I would
rather keep it in my collection. I found a Gold Basin that shows flow lines and
has a rollover lip, I could sell it for a dollar a gram, but I would rather
collect it.
I guess I am wondering if anyone is
collecting meteorites or just selling them. I would like to hear about the
really cool one you put in your personal collection, maybe even see a picture. I
had a friend give me a 2 kilo Gibeon (the best I have ever seen) as a gift. I
would not sell the piece for $100.00 per gram. I also had a friend give me a
14.5 gram iron from AZ, I would not sell it for $100.00 per gram either. Am I
the only collector out there?
