An example: If I would make a trade with a museum to obtain a piece from the former Chladni collection, then
the value for the meteorite gain by its added historic meaning.
If I ' m buying a meteorite from Haag, Hupe, Farmer etc. then last et least I pay the price I would agree with myself. Is it possible to get a better piece for the same price by an unknown dealer I would prefer to trade there. Names like Haag, Farmer, Hupe etc. or an NON historic provenance doesn't make
the meteorite more valuable.
Did you ever heard that any of the scientists (and they are observing what's going on on the market; also the list- be shure)
starting up or sharing such discussions with you about prices like you do?
They knowing where is the real value of meteorites. I think they dislike it. Dealers always for shure (greedily) and collectors often deep in their hearts let money comes first to leave one'smark on the meteorites. For them, the evaluation for a meteorite is a summary of a lot positions - in contrast for scientist only counts what the meteorite can tell by itself. Such discussions harms the value of collecting; therfore for scientist a good reason to demand that meteorites doesn't belong
in every ones hand.  Do you want to go on?
