Hola Bob, E.P., All, Hardly - the stuff they sell at the Meteor Crater store is shale. They don't sell real meteorites on-site, though you can find freshly dug-up irons on ebay from hunters for an average going price of ~$0.30/g. You'd probably be best-off buying some Odessa nuggets or a lot of those "Campo crystals" from Hans or another dealer who might have them for cheaps; those, at least, would be real meteoric iron, and not just oxide. Or what about Sikhote shrapnel? That tends to be fairly cheap... Best of Luck, Jason
