Hi, Mike, >>So, with only 98 items, it will be a very short night, indeed ( most of the previous auctions had about 140 items)
I'm a little curious why there would be about a 30 percent drop of meteorites in your auction. Any ideas for the decline? Economics? Weather? Supply out of Africa finally drying up? Public disinterest? (I see by Google Trends that there have only been a few minor blips during 2006 for "meteorite") Cheers, Pete From: Michael L Blood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Meteorite List <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Call for Absentee bids (AD) Date: Thu, 04 Jan 2007 14:26:09 -0800 Greetings all, I know most of us are looking foreword to going to the Tucson Show. However, some of us can't. Each year I get a number of absentee bids - and this year's catalog is chock full of terrific specimens - 98 of them to be exact and 90 of them are with NO MINIMUM. Yet, unlike previous years, there has been only one item that has gotten absentee bids. Remarkable. So, with only 98 items, it will be a very short night, indeed ( most of the previous auctions had about 140 items) - so if you have something to put in, NOW is the time - and if you want to place an absentee bid, now is the time.
