I've bought from you...I'm a newer guy and what I collect is large NWA unclassified. I have no interest in rare small specimens, but that may change. I'm still amazed that I own these this, and there is nothing better than a huge meteorite to examine. I have one especially that shows several different ancient impacts and different materials in one slice. It makes me wonder how analysis is made considering the 4 or5 different materials one is made up of. I'm slowly getting into the etched metals but rocks have my attention now.
