well you DO realize that you dont have to buy from conventional dealers,
yes? with a little bit of research on the net it wouldnt be too hard to come
up with the contacts for at least 2 guys directly in morocco. they normally
dont like selling a few grams here and there - but if you partner up with a
few collector buddies there is no reason why you cant buy directly out of
morocco yourself. there are risks - but these risks tend to be minimalized
by dealing with known moroccain sources AND knowing your meteorites. but in
the end it's a trade off - would you rather pay 7$ a gram for nwa cv3 from a
dealer stateside who will guarantee the authenticity of a rock in
perpetuality - or would you rather pay 1.25$ a gram and get a rock with no
nwa number who's only authenticity guarantee is based upon your ability to
recognize a cv3? keep in mind that most guys in morocco probably arent going
to want to talk to you unless you are spending a thousand or two or even
more - and even if they dont mind doing small transactons bank wire or
western union fees make such highly unrealistic.

If we could only convince sellers to stop profiting, the world would be a
better place. I mean I provide my professional services for free, why
can't
they?

It's
worked so well in all other collectible markets to run profits up.
