I am trying to raise some cash to pay for all the stuff I bought in morocco recently (And am feeling pretty poor right now) so if anybody is interested I will have a blowout sale on the diogenite. The main mass has that really stunning melted area on the cut surface. It is a special specimen for sure. http://www.meteoriteshop.com/metsale/diogenite.html Main Mass $2150 50.3 gram piece $699 #3 - $69 #8 - $57.50 #10 - $22 #12 - $30 #15 - $22 #17 - $19 #18 - $59 #20 - $85 #21 - $27 The rest has all been sold - even if its not marked sold $5 postage on all orders Cheers DEAN (AMUNRE on ebay where there are more meteorites)
