[meteorite-list] Ad - Galactic Stone News - 30% OFF Permanent Price Reductions and New Website Translator
Hi Listees and Collectors, I have two announcements this week regarding my website. #1) Website Translator : for my overseas, non-English-speaking visitors and friends, I have implemented a translator widget on my website. On the upper-left side of the page, above the category links, is a Google Translator widget. Simply select your language from the drop-down menu, and it will automatically translate the website. This has been long overdue. #2) Prices Slashed : every price in the store has been reduced by 10% permanently! - You can still use all the normal coupon codes in addition to this discount. This reason for this reduction is two-fold : first, it's a customer appreciation gesture to all of my long-time repeat clients, and secondly, it is recognition that economic times are tough (for buyers and sellers) and maybe some lower prices will spur some additional sales and make everyone a little happier on both sides of the transaction. Now you can use your "metlist" coupon code at checkout for an additional 20% OFF your entire order - taking into account the new price reductions, that is 30% OFF. :) #3) I no longer ship to Vogsphere. The customs and postal service there is a nightmare and it's not worth the excessive paperwork, taxes, and delays. #4) The link for the Recent Falls webpage has been moved. It is no longer on the main page. You can still find it at this URL - http://www.galactic-stone.com/pages/falls ---> www.galactic-stone.com All new offerings - http://www.galactic-stone.com/products/brand-new Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite collection of East London Museum in South Africa stolen
Dear Listees and Karmaka Thanks for this rather depressing news. I am fearful for the security and safety of collections in South African museums. This is not a story I haven't heard before involving other museums. I hope the perpetrators are caught, but I fear they will not. This can only serve to encourage other to do the same - unfortunately this also means curators and other museum workers.
