Gary,
From your post it really should be What don't you collect. ;>)
I guess you may not have too many martian or lunars.
I collect similar to you except I don't go for too many irons. Just
have a couple to show people and sxplain the broad range of meteorites.
Chondrites of all shorts (especially W0 unequilibrated) and HEDs. I too
love Dho 007
Cheers!

Greg poses a good question for the list: what types of meteorites do you
collect the most and are most interested in, and why?
Well, being far too scatterbrained to choose only one type, I have many
interests. I love carbonaceous chondrites, and among them CM and CVs in
particular (I love the smell of Murchison in the morning ;^)
For achondrites, I collect HEDs a lot, and love brecciated cumulate eucrites
like Dho 007.
WIth respect to ordinary chondrites, I love any unequilibrated stone, and type
3s of any classification float my boat.
Oh, and last but not least, I love big, regmaglyped complete irons of all
kinds. There is something about a large iron meteorite that captures the
attention and imagination of most people.

This brings up another idea for a thread:
What class or type of meteorite to you collect the most and are most interested
it?
I myself like rare ungrouped achondrites and my favorite is the Angrites.
