Alright, I give up folks. The first person to make a reasonable offer to me
takes it. I can't afford to keep the specimen at this particular time. And a
quick word of advise to anyone new considering collecting meteorites as an
"investment", don't count on your "investment" to do well for ya. I've sold a
handful of meteorites through either eBay or the list once in a while, just
simply trying to rotate out the "old stock", and I very rarely even got my
money back for them. It's like I've been renting specimens for so many dollars
per month. Maybe it's just me though; I just like to purchase meteorites, enjoy
them for a while, and then pass them on for someone else to enjoy. Then find
new ones to display. No need in hoarding hundreds of dollars of "rocks" to put
on my shelves. I just don't understand the meteorite market... It's in a worse
state than the U.S. economy that Bill Clinton had left for George W. Bush.
Unless you're a well-known dealer you can say goodbye to that "original retail
price", and even then it's not a guarantee. Just ask Mike Farmer; I've seen too
many of his museum grade pieces go for the price of rice. Anyway, sorry for my
rambling. And whomever wants the La Criolla can have it for whatever they feel
like paying for it. But let's be reasonable....please. Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Ryan

Good Evening...
I just wanted to let anyone interested in a very nice (partially-oriented)
LaCroilla individual know that I must sell this specimen, so I am now forced to
reduce the price $.50/g. So $329.15 + $3.85 shipping takes it. This price is
less than what I had originally paid for it. Please email for photos. Thanks
for looking.
Best Regards,
Ryan
