Re: [meteorite-list] Another crazy bidder on ebay
Dear Listees: New Year's greetings. I hope you all enjoyed the holiday weekend. I had a wonderful time up in Phoenix with my girlfriend. About a year ago, Steve and I did a radio interview about our TV series for "Slice of SciFi," which is based in Phoenix. I have since done two more interviews for the same station and became great friends with the hosts. They invited us up to their winter party and it was a blast. Science Fiction fans among you should definitely check out their show; it's outstanding (and very funny!): http://www.sliceofscifi.com As a result, I took the rather unusual step of not following my emails over the weekend, and came home to read all this business about my Ebay auction. So, here is the deal: Both the high bidders are not only customers of mine, but also friends. One is an experienced collector and a very popular member of the community; the other is a new collector and also, fairly obviously, new to Ebay. If either party wishes to withdraw their bids on the Bassikounou, it's fine with me, and no hard feelings. I'm also happy to close the auction and start it again from scratch if either bidder requests that I do so. Further, if anyone still thinks there is anything questionable about this auction, please email me off-List and I will ask both bidder's permission to provide their names and email addresses and you can do your own verification. Apologies from Don and Greg both accepted. FYI: when someone makes an accusation on the List, not only does it go out to hundreds people around the world, but it also gets permanently archived in the Meteorite Central database. In other words, as long as the Internet is around there will now be a bunch of searchable posts linking my name and my Ebay auctions to accusations of shill bidding. That doesn't make me real happy, so it's maybe a good idea to do a little fact checking, and to think twice, before posting something inflammatory. Anyway, to end on a positive note there is one really extraordinary offering among my current auctions and I invite you all to take a look. It is a 91.5-gram Sikhote-Alin shrapnel specimen with a superb impact pit. The pit has a well-formed splash rim and is 17 mm in diameter! I believe it is the second-largest impact pit I've ever seen on a Sikhote-Alin: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170585040150 And the rest of them are here: http://shop.ebay.com/aerolitemeteorites/m.html Regards to all, Geoff N. www.aerolite.org www.meteoritemen.com __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] WG: Asian falls
Hello Martin, All, I'll address your entire message with a slightly different angle this time. > some of the federal laws in Australia were even earlier in place. Right. Which supports my idea that the laws aren't what stopped the meteorites from being found. > The find numbers, correct me if I'm wrong, were produced mainly by > "official" expeditions, two times Euromet (one of them at least hopelessly > unsuccessful Mundrabillas, Millbillillies, three OCs - stuff in a quantity > a meteorite dealer would charge you today with 15-20k$) and one carried out > by the school of mines. You are unequivocally wrong. If you go through the literature, you'll note that at least half of the more recent Australian meteorites were found, as I said in my last email, by natives, or at least by scientists not on WAMET/EUROMET expeditions. http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1989Metic..24..135B According to Bevan in his 1992 abstract on the WAMET/EUROMET expedition, they recovered roughly 600 meteorites between 1992 and 1994. It's important to note that most of the material found was found prior to these expeditions, between 1986 and 1992. And as best I can tell, the "600 stone" figure included paired finds, meaning that they actually recovered fewer meteorites than that. Bevan notes in 'Desert Meteorites: A History:' "An active collecting programme continues in the Western Australian Nullarbor. However, unusually high rainfall related to cyclonic activity during the mid- to late 1990s, and the consequent regeneration of vegetation caused a temporary cessation of collecting activities. Since about 1997, the onset of drier conditions has reduced vegetation and returned parts of the Nullarbor to a condition suitable for systematic searching." I could stop here and say "Here is your answer -- this is why meteorites stopped being found in the early 1990's," but I'm guessing you won't take Bevan's word for it. http://www.springerlink.com/content/l0t783p802k561u6/fulltext.pdf If you check out the above article dedicated to the subject, you'll note that Bevan's claims are somewhat grounded, due to the three year streak of above average cyclone activity around 1994 (at which point the study ends, so it may have even been longer than that). So I'll get to the rest of your message. > 15 published new finds for a whole continent with deserts, where the past > proved, that they are very productive for meteorite finds - and that in THE > decade, where the big harvest took place in the deserts of the African, > Asian, and North-American continent, > is very unsatisfying, especially in a country of such a long and in former > times remarkable meteorite tradition. > The problem is, that since the 1990ies, no serious meteorite expedition > wasn't carried out anymore by universities there, as well as the basic work > (see the 500 unclassified finds) was neglected. On the one hand, I see what you're trying to say. But in light of Bevan's comments, you're left without a leg to stand on. If systematic hunting was rendered implausible due to increased levels of vegetation, you can't sit here blaming Aussie scientists for not mounting more expeditions because... You have no evidence of *anything,* so going on and on about how they're lazy on a list where they're not present to defend themselves isn't quite a nice thing to do. In light of that fact, I'm forwarding this thread to Alex Bevan himself, to see if he'll chime in. > So the Australian meteoricists fall short regarding the special meaning and > status, the Aussie meteorites are given in Australian legislation. > Consequently this legislation isn't tenable anymore. If you break the above block into the three respective ideas it contains, you get the following: 1) The scientists aren't doing the work they should be doing to recover meteorites based on the legislation that has been enacted. 2) Therefore the law should be repealed. I see two problems with this train of thought. The first is that you're implying that it is somehow an Australian meteoriticist's job to recover meteorites because a law was passed that protected them as national treasures. That in itself is twisted reasoning. Is it an archaeologist's job to recover all Native American artifacts in the US as quickly as possible because laws have protected them from being picked up by "unqualified people?" No. Does that make the law somehow defunct? I don't think so. The second is that you're insinuation that the law should be repealed because find rates have gone down. The law was passed with no intent of arresting or aiding the recovery of new meteorites in Australia. It was passed in order to keep the as yet largely unexploited cache of Australian meteorites from being exploited, as happened with Morocco/Algeria/Oman. In my opinion, a country has every right to exert laws over its resources. Correct me if I'm wrong. > How meteorites are found, I think everyone of us here on the list knows, as > we

Hi Everybody. I haven’t posted much on the list for the last several years. When I was active, I think there were about 800 members. Now according to Art, there are over 1300. Amazing. I have a couple of questions. I have some old meteorite stock (and some recent material too) that I want to sell. As Sellers How are you most successful in moving inventory? Is it by a website or a list with “sale” prices or is it by auction with a low opening bid and then hoping for the best? Or, are there other options that work well? As Buyers How do you most like to buy? Is it buying from a list or website with fair (sale) prices or is it buying at auction and hoping to get a really good deal? Or, are there any other ways that work well for you? I just basically want to move some inventory I’ve had stashed and I’m pondering the best way to do it for both buyer and seller. It's not a fire sale but I like a “win–win” situation. Thanks.
