Greetings meteorite enthusiasts,

Last Sunday I took my wife shopping to the Arizona Mills shopping mall in 
Chandler, AZ (this is south of Phoenix).  I came across a store called Black 
Market Rock and Mineral, so while the wife was clothes shopping, I went in to 
look around.
In one case they had some iron meteorites which were tagged "Campo del 
Cielo." 
The smaller meteorites on the upper shelf were all shiny from some sort of 
lacquer coating.  I thought this was a very odd way to sell irons.  Maybe it 
looks good for tourists.  The lower shelf had much larger meteorites.  I was 
able to read the price on one which was about the size of a grapefruit.  The 
were asking $635.00.  I thought this to be a little pricey and the entire lot 
of meteorites, one big rip off.

What does the list think?  Your comments are quite welcome.

Bob
