There is evidently more to IMCA membership than just sponsorship and fee.
Whenever there is an organization that has the ability to modify your
business in ways you don't agree, than membership is a concern or at
least something to think about. The Chamber of Commerce decided to
become very
Hi Greg, Al, Barry...
I just was surprised to find that other dealers, and a fair amount of them
dont have personal collections
Hmm Greg, how would you quantify that percentage of dealers, who don't have
an own meteorite collection?
My own impression is, that those, who haven't any are quite
If you can't understand what I just wrote, no problem..I can't
either..I'm challenged in that respect.
If I were a seller and belonged to the IMCA (which will probably never
happen now)...I would find it very hard to talk about these problems.
I want the IMCA to know that I receive several emails

Adam/Greg:
Very impressive.
Is that a fusion crust on NWA 5000 or desert varnish?

When we got to well over 100 members in all corners of the globe, we had to
organize, and become a legal entity. There was no choice there. And yes,
that meant a Code of Ethics, ByLaws, Yearly Elections, but also a website, and

The question was presented. How many dealers have a personal collection?
My brother Greg and I started out as collectors and continue to this day. I
believe we have more planetary main masses than anybody in the world.
Here is an image of part of the Hupe Planetary Collection.

Well said Anne. And Al, I'll stand behind Anne for recommendation. In

Hi Adam and List,
Holy Smokes Batman! That is a seriously hardcore collection of main
masses. That NWA 5000 is big enough to place on the floor and stand
on it carefully. Then you can say that you walked on the moon..!

I started out as a collector and then started trading/selling
specimens
Point taken Greg.

I was collecting minerals (and still am) long before Alain Carion

I find that most collectors do need or want the very best specimens, far too
expensive. They desire a nice example that represents a certain type with the
proper study, preparation, ID cards and provenance. They demand good service
which they are entitled to. Very few are able to step up and

Good question Greg.
Interesting answers so far too.
I'll comment as someone who collects and has never been a dealer. 20 or so
years ago when I started collecting coins, I found that most of the better
dealers were the ones that collected as well. They had the knowledge and

John, List,
All due respect and nothing personal here but.
I'm quite sure you know that the $20.00 annual membership fee is not a
deterrent for anybody to Join the IMCA.
But the truth is that there are many reasons one has to contemplate when
joining any organized organization.
