One of my first specimens I bought from Russ; I'm sorry he rarely posts any 
more.


Best!

Subject: [meteorite-list] NEMS post that I forwarded


Background to the NEMS post which I sent/forwarded to the list:

Russ Kempton offers an "is this a meteorite" service (cheap) for people who 
think they have found one.

On June 7, he received some specimens and pictures with the "is this a 
meteorite" question and determined that it is one, a pallasite, and the sender 
who sent it from Kenya, had said that there was much more.

Russ isn't on the met-list so hadn't seen the MF announcements but thought that 
some people should be told about a "huge new" find. So he sent specimens off 
for further analysis, set up a web page, and asked me to send the link to the 
met list as a service to the met-list members.

Only after the link was "published" did he find out that announcements had 
already been made, and about the theft.

He/I also didn't know until now that the sender of the specimens had contacted 
many people directly.

Don

[meteorite-list] Impressive NWA 5000 Secondary Market Notes

2017-06-14 Thread Raremeteorites via Meteorite-list
I have been watching the secondary market on the new NWA 5000, Kialara "To 
The Moon" Bit Coin suite.  There is an ongoing auction right now for a suite 
that could have been purchased a few months ago for $1,798.00 and is now bid 
up to $14,618.72 and the auction is not due to end until the 17th.  This is 
the unloaded price!  I have a feeling this will be bid over $20,000.00. 
Talk about a good investment.  I will give List Members a heads up next 
time.  These suites sold out in less than four minutes setting an all-time 
record.

I bought my first one there as well. A very nice 154g Canyon Diablo back 
in 1998.
