I agree with Dean, the negative vibe on this list has been high. I can think of several people whom I respect in the meteorite world (some who work in teaching and or research) that will not use the list because of this atmosphere.
Let's face it, the list is about communication of information on meteorites. That might be scientific information or sales information. Were all collectors so it's "ALL GOOD"! Abuse of advertising should be addressed by the list administrator ONLY! All sounding off from anyone about anything related to advertising does harm to the list and it's reputation (right now it has earned a very hostile reputation). My idea? Let's start a new thread on your favorite dealers. I'll start and I'll start with Dean Bessey. Dean was one of the first dealers to offer beautiful unclassified NWA's for (at the time) unheard of low prices. No where could you get large beautiful meteorites for the price he was asking. It is because of Dean I got hooked on meteorites. Over many years I have purchased over 200 Kg (no kidding) from him and have loved every one. Dean has launched many new meteorite collectors.
