I do not normally comment on ads but sellers should keep in mind that
selling meteorites found on public lands in the U.S. is against federal
law. I do not want to see anybody get into trouble because, as some
List Members have found out the hard way, the BLM does monitor meteorite
sales, especially eBay.
Meteorites may be casually collected, i.e., for free and without a
permit, under FLPMA However,in accordance with the BLM's regulations at
43 CFR 8365.1-5 collection is limited to certain public lands, (2) only
specimens up to ten pounds may be collected per person per year, and (3)
only surface collection with the use of non-motorized and non-Mechanical
equipment is allowed; metal detectors are okay. However, specimens that
are casually collected are for personal use only, and may not be
bartered or sold for commercial purposes.

List,
I have 32 auctions running right now with some ending in about 24 hours. Most
started at .99 with no reserve and some still have no bids. There are a few
items rarely offered, like Osceola, the witnessed fall from Florida. Or NWA
11107 a rare eucrite melt. Right now there is a 2.8 gram end cut with only 2
bids, $2.51 at the moment.
Some other highlights would be the rarely offered Arizona find officially
recognized as Bullhead City. Another rarely offered Arizona meteorite, the
witnessed fall called Indian Butte, aka Stanfield. I have a low TKW Howardite
that is gorgeous, NWA 11184. It's a 2.71 gram full slice that is currently at
$13.00.
Don't miss the extraordinary Anda tektites. The first 2 I put up sold quick,
there are 2 more up with very reasonable buy it now prices and a quick search
on the internet will demonstrate the rarity, these things are practically
unobtainable.
Others listed are:
Holbrook frag's from my big find in 2007.
A 3.2 kg Gold Basin from the Nevada side.
NWA 6581 an LL6.
NWA 10140 Lunar 1 of only 2 anorthositic troctolite.
unclassified NWA type3 slices.
NWA 8663 A complete crusted eucrite stone with no bids and no reserve!
There are others as well, take a minute and check them out if interested.
Thank you.
