Hi Martin, she wasn't allowed to keep it because she didn't own the property it fell on. She was a tenant. Still, as you say, it doesn't sound right to me. She would have deserved to keep it. I don't know of any pieces that made it to the collector's market except for the one tiny specimen sold on ebay. Cheers, Martin Von: Martin Goff <[email protected]> An: karmaka <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Betreff: Re: [meteorite-list] Draveil meteorite Datum: Wed, 19 Sep 2012 15:11:15 +0200 Hi Martin, I hadn't heard that. How come she was not allowed to keep it as it fell on her property did it not? That doesn't sound right that she wasn't allowed to keep it. What a great shame for her :-( Have you heard of any pieces that have made it to the collectors market at all?
